New tool holder mounted dishing doughnut.

Post by Halberds »

I have the prototype finished.
It is paired with the new universal tool holder.

I suppose I should test it now.
I have wanted to make a fantasy Beowulf ocular helm with bronze. :wink:

I am still working on the rest of the tool set.

Nice. :) What's the smaller slot for?

The smaller slot is for some of the gaunt tools which make up the full tool set.
This doughnut can also be clamped ion a vice.
