What's your favourite home made tool/gadget?

[Chrisp]

B&D powerfile of record spoke shave, hard choice!

All my tools are rubbish as I've only made one thing. More or less made the whole thing with those 2 tools!

Gilogt,
If your producing work like that with rubbish tools then there's not much hope for the rest of us!....
Chris.

Thanks Chris. I'm got going to lie, it wasn't an easy task. Took alot of patience. Mainly on the curved forend join and finishing. Shall not be rushing to do another!

Beautiful workmanship, but I'm not too keen on the rectangular cross-section of the forend.
Any particular reason for this?

What make is the gun?

 

[Jonzjob]

GUN!!! GUN!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

That is a rifle!

A gun is something that a farmer wanders around with pointing it in the general direction of anything that moves and blasts it back to its creator (hammer) (hammer)

A rifle is a precision instrument that can put a projectile into any part of the target that it is carefully aimed at!

That stock really looks the buis. It looks like a single shot bolt action .22?

 

[monkeybiter]

It's a top end version of the AirArms S400 precharged air rifle, with a beautiful stock on it.

 

[dickm]

Not much use against the deer that are wrecking my garden then??????

Seriously, that's a beautiful piece of work.

 

[TheTiddles]

I want to take up shooting again, just so I can have a stock like that!

Blimy, thats some project to make your own CNC machine, nice bit of engineering. And your cut pieces shows its true potential.

 

[tomthumbtom8]

Ali Yes
but I don't have a clue what to use it for to make money from it.

But If any one wants anything cutting just send me a XDF and I will happily cut for free

Rod
