Kurt Johnson Posted October 15, 2019 #727 Posted October 15, 2019 Amalio, Your work is impeccable. What a fantastic idea, attaching sandpaper to palette knives. I would have never have thought of it, but I can see how useful a tool it would be. Simple, elegant and now that I’ve seen it so obvious. Are you hiding any other gems you’ve come up with?

rwiederrich Posted November 5, 2019 #732 Posted November 5, 2019 I would only assume that you are using a small jig to accurately and consistently drill all these treenail holes symmetrically?

wefalck Posted November 6, 2019 #733 Posted November 6, 2019 As an avowed tool-junkie I would love to have a peek into his tool-chest ... Sticking sanding paper to palette-knives sounds like a good idea. Although I have 'inherited' a bunch of them from my mother, when she went to a retirement home and had to give up porcelain painting, they are too big for my scales. Perhaps one can make ones own micro 'palette-knives' from bent thin steel strips with a suitable handle. They should have the same size as toolmakers rasps/files or watchmakers echappement files. mtaylor, FriedClams, Alan Cabrera and 4 others 7 Quote wefalck panta rhei - Everything is in flux

Rob It's truly refreshing to see trunnels and plugs depicted at the proper scale, in the proper places, and with an appropriate species of wood. Too many otherwise well-done models are marred by improperly placed, over-sized trunnels and plugs of contrasting color. These are so good, I bet the grain's even running in the right direction! paulsutcliffe, mtaylor, cog and 2 others 5 Quote
