When the Military adopted the M14 and went with it the Navy stayed with the garand after a few years to make ammo supply easier these were first converted with a insert pressed in the chamber that...

The last tool room I worked in was also ISO 9001 certified so our personal measuring tools were certified every year by gauge and layout. This included our standards for them. One thing to get in the...

Pins in the right steps or blocks will not only show if the mics are calibrated but if the faces are square and parallel to each other.You want to check at every 1/2 turn or 1/4 turn. The face wear...

Roll the little finger inside the frame and press it against the ball of the hand turning the thimble with the thumb and fore finger. with...

I run a little finer tpi on my band saw its also a variable pitched blade. To coarse a blade and you dont have the tooth engagement giving a poor cut and pulling teeth off. You want a minimum of 3...

A nice addition to the mikes is a set of small hole gauges for measuring IDs.

I can remember when most shops would allow dial calipers for any close dimension

If its working for you and your happy with the results thats all that matters. I ladle cast with a bigger pot (100 lbs) and run in the 730-750 range normally. But my bullets are BPCR from 20-1 and...

Bet the pythons would be fun on a heavy rod and reel with a heavy snag hook.

Tool Maker and some gauge making for 35 years Started when I was 15 years old.

I can remeber the "side matches at second chance rifle shotgun sub machine guns. Then the auto revolver and team matches.

I like the bimetal hack saw blades keep them in 3 different tpi sizes. Starrett is on maker but there are several US made brands. A good hacksaw blade makes a big difference when cutting fine work....

Im betting you have a...
