I loved watching this, but I was a little disappointed that you didn't make your own screws. :D
2023-08-09 22:53:26 +0000 UTCI hope they work great.

2023-06-12 18:23:19 +0000 UTCWhat? No locktight on those screws? Where is the safety wire to make sure they stay torqued to the proper tolerance?

2023-06-12 09:04:18 +0000 UTCThe bandsaw is not a precise tool. The edge it makes is rough, and even with guides, can make a less-than-straight cut. I mean, I *could* have just bandsawed it to shape and bolted it together, but that'd be like building a deck made out of lumber you chainsawed out of a tree. :)

2023-06-12 06:58:06 +0000 UTCYou could save milling time, but you might end up wasting that time trying to set up for a bunch of perfect cuts.

2023-06-12 05:06:40 +0000 UTCNot particularly my field, but wouldn't it have saved a lot of milling time to precisely cut the metal square and to size?

2023-06-12 01:09:48 +0000 UTCYou say overbuilt, I say lovingly handcrafted. I say it's work to take pride in. oh, and not "focus you F#$%!"
