I have had a very delicate weekend after a very heavy session Friday night.
Never used to be like this after a drink but wow that knocked me for 6 init?
Anyway I did a bit of gentle meandering and broke lots of things in my shed.
I broke my m6 tap so that now limited me to what tools I could make today, reduced to M5 thread and used the round tips.
These tips I have are actually paint scraper blades by Hamilton, I bought these cheap some time ago for experimenting with and now passing them on.
They are very sharp and also thin so only to be used on very light work with light cuts.
Any heavy work should change tip, these will shatter to pieces under heavy strain but will be fine for your pen work.
I think I have also used all my round bar, so this may be the last of them until I find more.
The square bar I have, I cannot get a drill to go through it so am leaving that for now.
The longer handle is another lump of oak fence post, the smaller one is I think Cherry I found in the bin.
I now have four to take to the meet and pass to Jim, please don't start all that nice guy stuff again it embarrasses me and it ain't true.
I am only doing it to clear some crap from my shed and because I have no swaps for the meet.
