New shop started

You made a bandsaw throat insert out of H13?!?! Yeah, that should hold up OK

My fault!
I wouldn稚 call myself a hoarder but when it comes to material, I will often search for the exact right piece of stock so I don稚 waste material.

This piece was perfect. Not all of my stock material has stamps as to what it was. After cutting it for a bit and burning up some HSS I pulled it out of the chuck and looked at the end and saw the H 13.
Parting wasn稚 gonna happen easily so I went slow and cool on the bandsaw.

I haven't seen a 3 wheeler in decades. Scariest thing that I ever rode!!!!

 

[plastikosmd]

I have a few and still prefer the trikes
Love them, wish I had more room

A bit of spark erosion today. I needed to remove some cable from a clamp. HSS drill was a no go, I only had one 1/8 carbide endmill and I needed more depth

Very interesting, do you have a write up some more of the power supply and such that you're using to control this?

Quick project for Xmas present for wife and I (Our first date was fishing 27 years ago or so)
First time we have bought ourselves rods and reels. We want the customer out with a paint scheme to match the boat. Crafty one customs did a wonderful job.

First a gratuitous shot of the Milwaukee battery powered chopsaw. Love this thing. Glad to cut the cord





Picking up the rods.



Nice match to the boat





Chosen reels were two bait runners- Shimano Thunnus 6000



Two Conventional, Diawa Saltiga 15h



Two troll rods, 2 speed Shimano Talica 25



All installed

Wow. Invite me to dinner when you get the fish home please.
Do you have a rod ceiling mount in the Albin? Most wives don't like them and want you to hide them.

Have fun, am envious since I almost bought an Albin, unfortunately the one that broke down on survey, towed in, only due to seller's awful maintenance.
The next survey owner's wife fell off boat onto concrete dock and slipped down into water, utter mayhem getting her out, blood everywhere, ambulances, etc.
At that point I felt I was jinxed...
Bought this farm next and no time for boating.
Show us your first fish please
