Very nice, Jerry. Those Griffon's are nice shavers.

I got a set of bone scales, that are quite thin. Yet very strong.

Wow yours are really thin! I was going to shoot for about .080

I have a vintage set that measures 70 thousandths so it wasn't uncommon to have pretty thin bone scales.

I will have to remember that. Go thin with bone!

Thanks Outback and Scouthikerdad! It didn't come out exactly like I wanted but close enough to shave with that's for sure.

Jerry, I think you did a great job on that even thought pinholes were close to the end. I have some scales I have done that to by accident because I was drilling them out by hand.





Last night I had a lot of flood & tornado warnings on cable & my phone. I imagine Tom did also. Then right as I was about to lay down at 4 am, it started getting windy at times & I expected it to get worse but it slacked up some. I did notice earlier last night, I opened the sliding patio door while it was raining & usually it is cooler when raining but it was hot. Now we're getting more warnings on cable because the rain started up again.
I saw this parked across the street, so I zoomed in on it & got a good pic. That guy has the right idea. I just had 2 emergency flash flood warnings on cable within 3 minutes.

I actually decided to get rid of my Dremel drill press kit & I bought this small drill press for hobbyists. It is precise. It also has a digital readout for depth & is variable speed.






I think Harvey has finally made it here because I took my dog out for his walk earlier & I'm glad I did because it was just starting to rain a little & was thundering when we got back home & now there have been many tornado warnings on tv & on my cell phone. The wind will probably be kicking up soon.
Good luck Tom, I hope your garage living room doesn't flood.

It looks like that little drill press has a nice little XYvice on it too, which can be bloody handy.

Stay dry Texans!
