Darren:
I'm not quite sure where this is going, but I will sit back and wait  :thumbup:

BTW, you should write a book, "101 ways to get in the workshop" or "the longest kitchen.......build"  :lol:

Well you see it's like this Bernd.... I've just had a four day weekend and managed to spend the whole damn thing mostly in bed with a humdinger of a cold and a lung slapping bronchial thingyradoo!!  :(   Not the happiest bunny!

I did get out there tonight.... I was determined to do something this weekend, so I finished the pipe bender  :)  Only one little bit to do for the Aeolipile to have it's pipes made and then that will be back on course  :headbang: 

You see, it's all there..... Just need a  :poke: and the bacteria to sod off!


I see how your clamps will work, nice and neat  :thumbup:


Good luck with the kitchen  ::)   :lol:



Ralph.

Bernd:
Sorry to hear your under the weather Ralph. It does put a damper on having fun in the shop. :(

Glad you mentioned the pipe bender. I completly forgot about that. :thumbup:

Can't wait to see a vid of the Aeolipile running. :clap:

Here's hoping you feel better soon.  :beer:

Bernd:
Well you already know what's going on in the wood shop. "Stuff" is drying

So on with the clamps. First a bit of layout dye then some lines to mark hole location and finally a centre pop to locate the centre drill.



Next into the mill, I'm going to use the Grizzly mini mill for this because I don't have a holder for the smaller 1/4" end mill in the Bridgeport. I'm going to clean out that portion between the holes following the centre line and working out towards the sides to make a nice sliding fit on the table.



This picture will clear up any confusion in my writing above. The 1/8" holes are for corner clearances.



A quick bit of filing and we have a good fit on the rotary table.



Both clamps are almost done. They have had a slot cut down the centre to the 1/4" hole to help make it easier to for clamping.



A closer view from the bottom.



And here's the finished product. All clamped down and ready for some rounding over project. So stay tuned for the video coming on a forum near you………………someday after the kitchen cabinets are done.





Did I ever tell you how long it takes for polyurethane to dry ?   :scratch: :lol:  :lol:

Regards,
Bernd
