    Announcement: New instructional video on The Art of Flare Cutting

    I totally agree with the idea. I was just trying to follow Sam‘s video. There‘s something we Germans call „die reine Lehre“, meaning you follow the instructions by the letter and do not mess around or skip steps in case the student is ignorant of the importance of a certain step. I‘ll go...

    Announcement: New instructional video on The Art of Flare Cutting

    After cutting a lot of straight and curved line practise, I still have difficulties to get the graver roll symmetrical for forehand and backhand cut. This is what I tried already: -grinding two facets on top of the graver, with the same angle as the V shape, to have an indicator for the roll...

    Turntable use ... i dont get it :(

    As an afterthought to my former post, I made another magnetic label that bears a 2D dot pattern with about 0.3mm spacing. It’s printed with a b/w laser printer on white paper. Works better because of the enhanced contrast and finer structure. Place it on your work piece or on the ball vise...
