    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    There were some goodies under the tree. I spent some time getting the vice squared up on the mill. Also got a full collet set. So I also got busy on the cub gear again.

    Got a wonderful surprise for my birthday yesterday. Wife got me a benchtop mill with DRO! Can't wait to start making some chips with it. She also got me a nice bench to put it on. :banana-dance:

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    I think these will work a lot better than the O Rings or bungee's, though they will add a little weight.

    Spent some more time on the lathe today and pulled a page out of the Joe Pie handbook. I made a couple of small tap handles for using a tap guide on the lathe.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Spent the day on the lathe today. Worked on getting the Cub gear struts done. I ended up one clip short of getting both struts done. I still have to grind and drill the strut shafts for mounting on the Cub gear.

    I often have to put a jog in the throttle rod to get around the tank. Your solution looks good.

    Decided to get going on my Cub struts again. Spent about 3 hours sharpening my lathe bits trying to get them to cut, then I finally remembered my lathe was running in reverse! Afternoon shot!

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Sounds like it was a pretty bad for a lot of people! Our little town is right off Highway 20, and can be closed from blowing and drifting snow from time to time stranding truckers and motorists. It's one of the longest stretches of Highway in the country.
