Long9Ron Posted February 17, 2013 #2 Posted February 17, 2013 Nice job. I like all your tools. I have also made some tools. Will post them later. My homemade lathe is here. http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/126-my-homemade-wood-lathe/ Ron Ron Current Build: H.M.S. Triton Cross Section 1:48 Why is it that I always find out the best way to do something is after I have already done it the wrong way? - Me
fabius.b Posted February 17, 2013 #3 Posted February 17, 2013 Very interesting.I like particularly the system to prevent the jigsaw blade to bend sideways. It 's very smart. Great job. current build: USS Constitution cross section - U.S. Navy Frigate 1797
zeptraderUK Posted February 17, 2013 #4 Posted February 17, 2013 Great, I love the thickness sander idea. Colin ----------------------------------------- Current Build HMS Victory Cross Section 1:72 HMS Hood 1:200 On Hold HMS Victory (Full Hull) 1:84 HMAV Bounty
sephirem Posted February 17, 2013 #5 Posted February 17, 2013 I noticed on the thickness sander drum some screws. Do they not scratch your work piece? Also are there any height adjustments on the thickness sander? TimCurrent builds: San Fran II AL, Santa Maria AL Finished Builds: Sharpie Shooner Midwest
cog Posted February 17, 2013 #6 Posted February 17, 2013 Inventive work. Do you still have some pictures left on how you made them? Carl "Desperate affairs require desperate measures." Lord Nelson Search and you might find a log ...
fabius.b Posted February 17, 2013 #7 Posted February 17, 2013 The screws seems to be well allocated into the drum IMHO, because the sandpaper make an inner angle. current build: USS Constitution cross section - U.S. Navy Frigate 1797
sonicmcdude Posted February 17, 2013 Author #8 Posted February 17, 2013 Thank you guys you are to kind Ron, I see the lathe and is the best it can be and is pretty to you did a great job. Fabius, I made the jigsaw stand because I don't own a band saw or a scroll saw and for now is working just fine. Tim, the screws doesn't scratch the work piece because they are lower in the drum it self, and yes there is a system for height adjustment you can see in the pictures-screw with a T-nut on a raising table which is attach with hinges. Carl, I really don't have pictures how to build them but I will help you with any question even with a hand drawing if you will. I will be happy to help about anything, Thanks again!

michael mott Posted February 17, 2013 #9 Posted February 17, 2013 Sinan, a great job on the tools I also particularly like the jigsaw and the sander variable speed control, looks like it came off a sewing machine.

greg-kam Posted February 17, 2013 #10 Posted February 17, 2013 (edited) Great job Sinan, I like all your tools. I notice the nice parts of the machines made of aluminium . You have workshop to work with it? Greetings from your neighbour. Gregory Edited February 17, 2013 by greg-kam Gregory Kamtsikoudis
sonicmcdude Posted February 17, 2013 Author #11 Posted February 17, 2013 Thank you Michael and Gregory. Michael yes that is a motor from a sewing machine. Gregory, the aluminum profiles are hand cut and then filed. The precise parts like the disc is made by a lathe machinist (I paid like 10 euro for that). The motor stand is a part from another machine I'm not sure from what really (I find this part in a secondhand store). Almost all other is made of wood or plywood.

Dida Posted February 24, 2013 #12 Posted February 24, 2013 Very inventive tools, Sinan! I like them all. I will study your sanding tool, I need also a machine like it. (Vidi se da imas klikere za nesto smisliti. Malo cu prouciti debljacu, to bi i meni dobro doslo.) Kind regards, Hrvoje Finished: Leut by Dida My current build: Leut II My forum dealing with traditional Croatian and Mediterranean shipbuilding: http://drvenibrodovi.forumotion.eu.
