Hi Joules,

I'll see what I have. Can he work in inches or is he going to be strictly metric?

He will be brought up on a mixture of metric and imperial.  Hopefully he won't turn his nose up at old iron later on and be happy finishing a metric part with a 1 thou cut.

I have metric and imperial mic's here for teaching him.

         I just had to look up Keith Fenners tool box giveaway.   If he got what they show last year he would be better equipped than I am now   :bugeye:


Thinking about it some tool making projects would be good for him and me.  I could use a small interchangeable soft face hammer, finger plate etc.  Might as well make two, together as make one alone.

I associate my apprenticeship with the warmest of memories gathering tooling for my inventory was hard to say the least, it’s a very kind thing you are doing and I certainly would like to contribute, PM me the address and I shall donate all I can spare.

Anthony.

Anthony, I have had some fantastic mentors in my years, they have been both generous in time, equipment and materials.  Many of them are no longer with us, I can think of no better way to honour their memory than to pay forward what I recieved.
