| Chuck in E. TN:
I'm building patterns for 3 tools I need/want. The tools are a follower/traveling rest and steady rest for my 7x lathe, and the body and banjo for the L.H. Sparey Dividing Head. Please look at my patterns and offer any advise/criticism as appropriate. No draft has been applied yet to any of them. Do I need it? Do they need to be split?

My Critique would be that the images is so damn small one cannot see the details without dropping the resolution on my computer screen.. :offtopic: |

I think the images are fine - I got them to 2,048px × 1,536px with a couple of clicks. As far as the patterns go, I'm sure someone more knowledgable on casting will comment but I'd think about making the fixed steady in two parts so that it's easier to put the work in. Russell |
| NeoTech:

| Chuck in E. TN:
