Heath Robinson would be proud. Rather ingeneous. Belongs in a museum - a very good example of the "Can do - make do" approach of just getting something done. I see it does come with a tool holder that looks like it has a carbide insert in it - also quite likely shop made as well. cheers, Graham in Ottawa Canada |
