I made a small cart for storing leftover metals.

It has casters under it. So its easy to turn around or move.
I also finished my " split railroad track lantern stand "with new axe.

Used old axe to make a smaller stand.

I have a project to bend more pipe with larger bending radius and the first cutter I made is not side enough for the die (180mm) to I made a new one.

I went with 7/8" reamer to make it easier later on if I need new bushing down the track

The top bush is 3/4", the bottom is 5/8"

Nice
"I have a project to bend more pipe with larger bending radius and the first cutter I made is not side enough for the die (180mm) to I made a new one"
Great method you came up with . I am looking at the tool you used , it looks like a square blank HSS tool with no rake ? The swarth is coming off the alloy in strings . Just wondering what alloy is it ? Thanks

The cutting is the insert I bought at the auction, it is 1" long to I could cut the radius close to 25mm with it. The top and bottom support are 150mm apart, that enables to cut larger die. My first version is the "C" shape and it has clearance problem when cutting larger die at 160mm especially on smaller radius

The insert is about 5mm wide and 1/4" high, I drilled with 4.5mm hole then used the end mill to bring the hole to size. The stock is the counter weight from the old garage door so I don't think it is anything special, could be the hot rolled steel? To determine the cutting radius, I bring that support shaft into the work then back out the distance I want then push out the insert. It is 1/2 the shaft diameter plus that distance

Bob that is amazing bit of kit you've produced, hope loyl is still grinning.
You git a hot deal for the card cloth that's a bargain. I have chased replacement often to be put off by the exorbitant $$$ mortgage required. Have you a link pls?
Sue has not seen this yet but will show her this and the combs both have been requested in past yrs.
May I suggest push bike spokes for comb teeth tough stuff and cheaper especially if you go round cutting them out of bikes wheels left out side of homes while well dressed door knockers are spreading the religious word.
Nice to see that woodwork real nice grain.Last edited by wheelinround; 29th May 2021 at 11:41 AM. Reason: Add. Bob green belt is available via a supplier here will locate the link and post later. What grade of carding cloth ?

I tried to hide that fact being they are the same. However you never see a wheelchair left outside leaning against a fence or post while the person is in sharing Gods word. Come to think of it I've neve seen any wheelchair religious door knocker at all. selling or otherwise. We are wiser I guess.

Thanks Wheelin.
SWMBO has been working the carder overtime and is very happy with it.
RE; Bike/Wheelchair spokes
Most of the spokes on wheels I see by the side of the road tend to be rusty but I will have a closer look next time

I have couple other uses for the table too, than being just under the press. But, i need to finish some parts before i can show them.
