Tim's new shop progress

10: Water heater desinged by sadists - no clearance - had to spend 50min disassembling to change out the anode.
9: Need better tap holders and this tap is not so sharp.
8: don't like the finish, but it did blue up OK
7: Turning taper, but nasty finish - I think I really need to be able to adjust the height.
6: Very fiddly setup to set the compound.
5: Inks up OK
4: Trimming the MT3
3: +/- 10um run out
2: Glasses with pocket clip
1: Clinton Street Bay window apartment

12: Fixed this only to realize I can't find the crystal
13: Fixed this only to realize I can't find the crystal
14: Blue on the entire taper - not easy. I can't trust the flats on the lathe.
15: Alsmot finished - just need to cut a flat on it.
16: Nice snug fit in the tool holder - figured out the finish problem at the end of my efforts.
17: Taper grabs the wheel arbor.
18: Starrett 91 Single sided pin - very hard to remove
19: Replaced with some copper wire. Needed to dissasemble to regrind the seat that holds the tap.
