amazing content excellent keep safe thanks for sharing

[@cbret1027]

That was my next question. Manual is a challenge,but that flat feeling makes it worth it!

[@houseofbrokendobbsthings5537]

You bet. If I would of had a larger mill I could have given myself a better starting point. But, I made do with what I had on hand. Midway, I switched to carbide blades, Biax scrapers and got a diamond touch up wheel. Much-much improved over HSS blades. Changed from scratching to more like shaving. That was a learning moment…LOL.

Some how I've missed some of your videos. Just catching up. Nice fix that Dan

[@houseofbrokendobbsthings5537]

Well I chalked it up to you developing taste and discernment….LOL. I believe the minions at KZbin have been making mischief. Same thing happened to me and Eyup Tony - likely others as well. Thanks for watching!

Thank you. Just a life long mechanic learning to machine. My shop is piled high with projects for my retirement whenever I kick that off someday.

Nice job Dan! Did you do the scraping on the ways?

[@houseofbrokendobbsthings5537]

Yup! That was a challenge. Made me wish a power scraper would appear.

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Whew! You had me on my seat.

[@houseofbrokendobbsthings5537]

LOL 😂- big moment for me not to have to trim,file, or otherwise resolve a bad measurement. Thanks for watching Tom.
