Steel and brass in this occasion it from nessesity.... But you remember my finger engine flywheel? Same stuff ;)

Yep the carbide does just about everything I make.... Just the way I started out and have stuck with it.... Will one day try to make some hss tooling but this does me for now  ;D


Glad you like it so far  :thumbup: .... Had to use one of the new ones ;D

Bernd:
Ya I remember that from the finger engine. I think it looks nice to use some contrasting colors in your work. I wonder how stainless and brass would look together all shined up? Been thinking of doing something like that for a flywheel.

I'm going to check the heigth from the headstock after checking my favorite 2 forums. I''l let you know how it turns out.

And I see Eric provided a few more.  :clap:  I love 'em. :thumbup:

Bernd:
As I logged on I see you were here to, Ralph. Looks like about 12:30AM your time.

I checked the heigth at the head stock. No difference as compared to the tailstock. So everything was OK. But, I forgot to mill the bottom. I was cheking on a rough bottom.  :o

I almost got the body cut out tonight and milled but had a very dull blade in the bandsaw.  :bugeye: So I set the part aside and had dinner.  ;D Tomorrow is another day.

There's nothing worse than checking on a rough bottom Bernd!!

Is it not at all salvageable?

Maybe it will be usefull elsewhere? or if it rotates through 90 degrees would it work then?

You have a power saw!!! WOW!  I have a hacksaw and a worn out arm!!   

One day I too will own a powered saw of some type?!

intill then it will take me much hard work and out of breathness to cut my 3" steel bar stock  :(
