  1. What an interesting use of electrical wiring heat shrink tubing! Now that is thinking outside the box.
  2. I had bought my pin vises (2) and number drill bits from McMaster-Carr. I bought two pin vices because they came with a reversible chuck (larger shaft/small shaft) so I could have one set for each. That ended up being a waste of money as they are easily reversed. I bought a few bits that came in multiple quantities in envelops. The smallest of which are quite delicate and snap with the slightest side pressure (flex) if you do not choke up on them with the pin vise chuck.
  3. Yes. I took the subassemly to my belt sander and gradually created the taper from point to point, each side.
  4. I drew an imaginary line from B to D and from A to the Gripe horizontally opposite D and tapered the stem to these points along these lines. It made sense to me.
  5. THE CABINS LOOK GREAT! I just watch a two short videos of the cori robotic knee replacement surgery... got my GDD (Google Doctor's degree!). I'm guessing it will be a quicker recovery with this procedure. Hoping all goes well and your back jogging in no time.
  6. Sometimes I find the small restricted area fiddles with my mind to make it more difficult than it should be. I also find carving on end grain to be difficult. I find that if I take a slightly larger piece of thin stock and rubber glue that to a base piece of wood that is clamped, then pencil mark the shape, then start carving it is somewhat easier. Then I remove it from the base and take it to the table top disk sander and sand the edges to their margin lines.... but still the first one can take three attempts! But it gets easier.
  7. I get to 9:51 in the above video and it kicks me back to the beginning! I can pick just ahead of that and it loads and plays... not sure what I missed, assuming not much
  8. There is nothing more satisfying than getting the last of those seemingly never ending frames done! BZ
  9. Thank you Bruce. I find the mention of those in 1790's and earlier quite interesting
  10. Well, that was a better idea then what I was trying to do originally. I'm too embarrassed to tell you. 🤐
