I've been working since the middle of last September. I usually have enough time, so I have enough patience to finish it. No less than 10 hours a day. Except for machining, most of the parts are done by hand. I am very concerned about the cleanliness of the work environment, not only to reduce the dust caused by the processing bias, but also to accurately find the tools I need.

BANYAN Posted March 27, 2020 Share #71 Posted March 27, 2020 (edited) Oh come on now; you have to have a team of elves out the back doing this? Truely beautiful detail; you are a master craftsman - I think any cabinet maker would be proud of those furniture items, yet alone these being at scale! Is that small vise / gripper you show at post #67, 7 down a purchased item? With your skills, you probably made this? It looks a very handy tool/accessory. If you made this would you please show some other shots of it?
