Quixoticgeek<p>After I finished work on my primary project yesterday afternoon, I had a bit of time left until the 3d print finished. So I decided to have a play with my new self made sensitive drilling attachment. </p><p>Aim was to drill a 0.5mm hole in some brass. </p><p>I achieved that with minimal breakage. I've just had a chance to test the hole with gauge pins. </p><p>500µm pin fits.<br>600µm doesn't git. </p><p>I'm considering that a big win. </p><p><a href="https://social.v.st/tags/Machining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Machining</span></a> <a href="https://social.v.st/tags/Making" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Making</span></a></p>

Devlin Leathercraft<p>Here is my latest machining project. In the upper left corner it shows a letter holder with handle attached. This four inch, single line letter holder is what my letter sets come with. I made two six inch letter holders so I can stamp book bindings and I made dual line letter holders so I can stamp multiple lines at the same time. The letter slots are tricky because of the small size and tight tolerance. My instructors loved I was making this for practical use. <a href="https://handmade.social/tags/Machining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Machining</span></a> <a href="https://handmade.social/tags/LeatherCraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LeatherCraft</span></a> <a href="https://handmade.social/tags/CAD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CAD</span></a></p>
hannait has been a wild week, on saturday i rescued a beautiful kitty from the middle of an 8 lane highway, on tuesday and wednesday my boyfriend and i dragged home two bridgeport cnc mills that we plan on refurbishing. now i’m sitting on the couch, getting ready to go get some groceries, which is, thankfully, the only thing i have to do today. <br> <br> i hope to get back to outfit posting soon, lately i’ve just been wearing my “get dirty” clothes, which are now very dirty! <br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/cats?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cats</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/machining?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#machining</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/machinerestoration?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#machinerestoration</a>
