What type of saw(s) are you using to cut the pins?
Use this with the magnetic guide. Blades really do last for years. Easy to chip the end if over enthusiastic, easy does it.
I use the MK1 version of this for coping out the waste.

You have me lusting after one of these now for doing metalwork… (as well as fancying a new coping saw to replace the crappy one I have)

They are bloody good, mine is a 5 inch depth version, blade tension is excellent. I think mine was a mk 2.

I failed to resist and have ordered a 5" fret saw.

Right, I’ve deleted the banter from Bob’s thread. Fun as it was, it was just thread crapping.

Lovely job Bob
Foo creams and polish are quite expensive but you have to have them under lock and key?

I know, Bob could at least keep Koetsu, SPU and IO cartridges inside it.
looks that way.
Wondering if Bob (AKA johnny shoeshine) is planning to turn states witness on the Lopwell gang? Shoe shine guys always talk.

I fancy making a 3 drawer, drop front Secretaire for that. Lots of small drawers and boxes inside boxes, plus secret compartments. Also a handy little workplace for cart fitting and general titting around.

Yeah, I:
1 - didn’t read that bit
2 - forgot the lengths of insanity that are commonplace on this forum
Overall, I fucking love it!
