I had another week off work recently, most of which has been spent sitting in the sun. I did some work on the car, and (re)built a disc sander. My original attempt was a bit of a shambles with a fixed table. This attempt is much better looking, and has an adjustable table.
The power unit is an old router I picked up at a boot sale for £10
I made up a cam operated switch, but the vibrations from the un-sprung power unit causes it to switch off. A little thumb bolt keeps it on until I decide to switch it off.
I haven’t done much turning so far. An egg for the monthly challenge, and a mortar & pestle is all I managed.
I’m not sure what went wrong with the shape. Any chicken passing that would need Pethidine.The pins are 4mm silver steel sharpened to points to give the illusion of floating.
