No, I don't need to eat my words. The commerce involved in this transaction was completed before I said,
Arrived yesterday.
Can you tell what it is yet?
TADA!
Couple of Beautiful Handcrafted Podgers, from the skilled hands of ... @nickk
These were an add-on from the original enquiry about a Slick.
And here is the original 4" Slick, with its companion Newly commissioned 2" Slick.
These have exceeded my expectations by a long shot.
(She who makes lumpy custard), struggles to be excited
Just need final polishing, without overheating the steel.
Oh, and finding a suitable piece of wood to whittle for handles, suggestions welcome.
Kind of committed to tradition timber framing now!
This'll be my last shopping spree for a while ()

Had to clean up some mangled M14 threads today I've pulled out the taps and dies set but there was M14x1.25 only
So I've dig out my good taps and dies box only to figure out I don't have any M14 taps
Or at least I have them in 1, 1.25 and 1.5 pitches
Soooo
Dormer M14 spiral fluted tap with the box
Dormer M14 spiral flute vape coated tap
And a mix of Dormer and SKF M14 taps.
Just noticed that the blue shark one shank has been machined
40 euro in total

our lass says thatThey'll be at last place you had them .........
i say dont change your job to a comedienneprobably not in this case- they will be exactly where they fell out of my sweatshirt pocket- which could be any time after I thought I needed to take them out of that pocket because things fall out of it - but I was too busy just doing something important that could have waited two minutes…They'll be at last place you had them .........
