    Scope replacement

    You can see big... but you do not have stereoscopic vision with this kind of scope (or any monocular one). Perceiving the depth is very important in engraving work.

    RIP Jerry Huddleston 1936-2021

    Sad News indeed! Although I never met him we exchanged some emails because he bought one of my ring lights around the first quarter of 2019. He was a great person doing beautiful works of art. Rest in peace Jerry!

    Vector Programs

    Inkscape is a great program. It is free, open source and cross platform software (Windows, MacOS and Linux). You will not be disappointed using it. Plus, you can download it for free, give it a try and, if you do not like it you can the look for another one without loosing any money.

    Work Station Organization

    Your design is nice and looks great BUT I would have designed it with the tools facing down. This looks quite dangerous with all that sharp points so close to the hand pieces. Safety always first!

    new wildlife thread

    A new member comes to our home... it is a Tupinambis lizard that lives in our backyard from a month or so ago. We speculate that it would have been brought here with the last swelling of the river. (We have a river at the limit of the backyard). It is around 80 cm long and quite unfriendly! I...

    Help needed, any advice and suggestions, please help.

    Hi Jessica, welcome to the Cafe! Perhaps your best first inversion would be to get some classes. You will have the opportunity to know the tools and what they are intended for. Then you will be able to decide what tools suit your needs best. All the best on your new and fascinating endeavor!

    Prototype vise top

    You are welcome Brian! Before working in the new model I would suggest you to take a look at the standard extruded aluminum profiles that are made for machines tables and other applications. They are sold by length in different wide measures and also with various steps between slots. If you...

    Prototype vise top

    Hi Brian, What about of making it with "T" slots instead of those pass through slots? You would save some mechanizing in hollowing out the downside of the plate and also some material too, making it thinner. The T nuts are standard and come in many measures. Kind regards!

    Where’s the line?

    Precious metals are soft and they will wear out with the use along the time for sure. Planing ahead, you could place the finest details on recessed surfaces. This will prevent them from wearing out prematurely. From the point of view of the owner, and knowing that the use of the object will...

    Junair Air Compressor help

    Hi Michele! I do not think that the plug is stuck. I never needed to heat up one of these. These drain plugs are usually made of brass with a conic sit so just unscrewing a couple turn will suffice to let the water start draining. First release the air pressure and let the air escape of the...
