A few seconds of polishing the leading edge of a fan blade is well worth it! It will run more quietly, be more efficient and stay clean longer! #savemoney #quieterfan #clean #springcleaning #efficency
A handy 90deg. Adapter I picked up somewhere along the way. No brand showing, ever seen one like this? Could be shop made? #welding #weldprep #drill #tool #misterytool
Using Shipwright’s wedge and dog and some leverage to align 11ga (1/8”~) stainless for a grill body. Worked well. #welding #customfabrication #metal #shipbuilding #stainless stainlessfabrication
Bucking some copper rivets, I love rivets!! I made the buck from hardened steel on the lathe, I’ll make a video of that process, pretty cool, and unconventional for sure.

surprise at the end! Drilling hardened tool steel with a carbide drill, didn’t expect the hairdo😂#machining #hardsteel #hardmachining #lathe #carbidedrill
A beautiful Peter Wright (according to the internet) 110lb leg vise, it took some work as it was living outside in PA for a while. It’s wrought iron and has steel jaws brazed on. Very happy to give it a bit of TLC!
Some autogenous stainless welds. Not critical, so adequate strength wise. Please don’t call this a “fusion weld”! #steel #stainless steel #welding #weld #weldingstainless #autogenous #autogenouswelding
