I left the embedded surfaces of the insert rough to bond with the resin, And polished the face that contactos the blade.
Matheus, how did you cut out the relief for the inserted splint? I think that would have been the hardest part. It certainly turned out well.
Thanks Bill but it really wasn't me. I have to give all the credit to JungleJim on this one.Quote:

TBH, these days I just plug in the old WedgeO'Mat. Scrap lead in the reservoir. Let it warm up a bit and push the button.

Man!! That thing is AWSOME!!!! I got a ancient model but it doesn't work as good as yours.
I post a pick of it when I get home from work..
I think the heating element is on the fritz.
Just a quick question on the railway track anvils.
What size is the working surface ?
I might be able to get myself a piece of an old railway track. The working surface converted to inches is 3.75" x 2.75". Is this too small?
Its perfect.
The ones i made were 3" long
Mine's a little different from the ones I sent the guys though, theirs is finished on top and one end.
