Forging? I think mine is described more as roughsmithing. ;-) but as my old metalwork teacher used to say "All cold blacksmiths go to hell". I have one lathe I can "get too" and also a pillar drill, and a H mill if I am pushed, but I must admit some days I just have to do some engineering as an antidote to all the building work. Seeing the workshop rising out of the ashes is rewarding in itself, but it isn't what I really want to do........ But at least when it is done it will be warm, dry, and much less embarrassing.
Man who say it cannot be done should not disturb man doing it! https://www.youtube.com/user/philhermetic/videos?

Hi Rob , good to see you back on the project. with the keyway attachment how long does it take to cut the keyway ? , I mean is it a very high number of really slight cuts or can it take a decent cut per stroke ? Another do dad well worth making I dare say
 .... more on my to do one day list  Cheers Mick

Another do dad well worth making I dare say Hi Mick , total time including setup is about 5 to 10 minutes , It really is quick once the slotter is bolted to the slide , I do not need to remove the top slide,i just did for photo clarity . Put it this way its quicker/cheaper than a broach , also dose tapers , I have used it to do tapered splines for a steering wheel boss , also dial graduations etc Ed , there well worth the time to make one , good tool project too , if you need drawings lets no .Cheers Lads Rob |
