domed washer progress

i read the tutorial about making domed washers using drilled out steel rod and spent a little time fooling around making the setup. my first washer was a failure as i cut the tubing too short but in no time i was making washers that will work for me. they sure are tiny though, and every time i dropped one it disappeared into the flotsam and jetsam on the workbench. this picture represents what i'm getting, a huge improvement over the first times i tried pinning and peening. still need to figure out how to mount them on the dremel to polish them. i'm using a heavy teaspoon to peen the pins. i honed my new Boker today and will make new scales for it.

It all goes downhill from here.... No really, congratulations on the progress. In no time you'll have a procedure that works for you so that you can crank them out whenever you need.

Good Luck,
Michael

To mount them to a dremel you can take a nail a little larger in diameter file it down so the washer fits tight and then mark and file off what sticks out on the washer. Yours look good better than my first few, good job.
