I am doing all that Alan, its the scale that is giving me the challenge. Also on the Mill its difficult to see the depth of the cuts. Ive made some 10 scrapers so far but not happy with the results. Today i am going to see of i can hook up one of my cameras and blow it up on a monitor to get a better feel for the depth of cut. My Turbo carver is small enough to cut the curved surfaces on the hacksaw blades but my smallest files are useless. -
Working on making the moldings. Having a hard time with the scale. Most of my tools , blades, files are too large, but i will get it done but it will take a few attempts. So there will not be another video until I get it right.

Harbor Freight 4” saw blade. I forgot to say i purchased a 4” saw blade with a 1/2” arbor for the Jim Byrnes saw and it works great. Its a bit noisy but i can now make 7/8th cuts when making bulk stock. It is a bit noisy but works great. At $5.00 how can you go wrong. In the past i used my Proxxon to do this work but it would struggle when making large amounts of stock.

Thats exactly how i made them Greg and it worked great. The only problem i had in the beginning is when shaping they got hot and the solder melted, so i used jewelry soft solder and that solved the melting issue.

How did you flair the outside ends of the scupper port pipes. kevin

All done so back to making the rest of the trunnels. I hope i can find a case design that allows broken glass to be easily changed.

At the same time i am carrying out a clean up to the Emma Berry and replacing a piece of broke glass in the case. This was an early case i made and it a miracle i got it out with out damaging the rest of the case.

Still have the goal to move the split bamboo pieces in the bottle to .020 trunnels in the glass on the right
