Making a set of Machinists V-Blocks
Hey everyone
This week I'm tackling a set of machinists V blocks. The project didn't quite come out as I hoped, but had a lot of new stuff for me, including trying my hand at some questionable surface grinding on the milling machine.
Complete with its own clamp, and a very slick turned brass knob on the lathe.
Thanks for checking it out!
