 Hi Bob, I love to see hand tools used.  I went through a stage when younger when I used power tools for every job.  Then I became interested in hand tools, and use them whenever practical. I like the feel and accuracy you can achieve, and I find it much more satisfying.

                                                  Cheers  David

Is your vice a drill press or a milling vice. Nice project. That was the way a man was trained to start with. If he could master that he moved on, if not he got the boot. Nice work looking for the finally.
