Is that a built in die extractor I see? :thumbsup:

I to am learning the hard way to work metal - I will be attempting to make a few of these when the weather gets a little cooler - 110 degree heat index today! Good Job!

That's a great idea but no this is just a slide for when its mounted into the tail stock the due head moves not the tail stock
But now you have put that great idea in my head mayn't another mod is on the cards

Thanks

You did a nice job on those. The one (little) thing I see that might help you a bit is to blunt/round/bevel those edges a bit so you don't inadvertently cut yourself. (Don't ask me how I know :whistle

Sounds like experience talking;-)
All the edges have been broken so no sharp edges

Thanks
