    Cutting tool

    David,

    What is the axe shaped tool, how did you make it and when do you use it?

    Yup. I made it from a three-inch diameter disc saw. Cut a groove into a length of 3/8-inch brass round stock and inserted the section of blade into the groove and used two machine screws to compress the rod to hold the blade securely in the brass handle.

    Used to achiever very low kerf cuts in curved sections. Such as the leading and trailing portions of the SEAVIEW's superstructure.

        I give you informative, complete answers to your questions, and you whistle up alternatives to my excellent advice.

        Still... you wonder. Stop wondering! For nearly twenty *** years you've been wondering and surfing the Interlink.

        Do this: pull your puss away from the monitor and stop playing with your mouse (no, the one next to the keyboard). Then march resolutely towards your shop, grab some tools, and FINISH something!!!!

          That Tamiya toys are for styrene and injection kits.

          Copy those homegrown tools from David, makes more fun, is good for the ego, works decently and costs less.
