Hey Mac

 

Yes you are right Stainless Steel is not easy to work with. using most hand 
tools.

But with a hand angle grinder and an abrasive wheel, Plus a pedestal grinder 
with both a grinding wheel and wire brush and a few files.(for fine detail 
work.) working with these scrap steel pieces was not all that hard to do. Each 
template took something like 20 min. to make.(+/-)

As I start getting more use to do this kind of stuff by hand again, I am hoping 
the quality of my work will also improve?

 

I just made one more turning today.

This one is template work, with the Wave Attachment and the Legacy.

 

More latter.

 

Have a good day.

 

C.A.G.

Curtis,

 

Would it not have been easier to use pieces of scrap 2x2 angle iron or a steel 
window lintel from a house being renovated?

You may be able to fined scrap steel at a local "Habitat for Humanity 
Re-store". (One of my favorite places to check out once or twice a month.)

I have never tried cutting stainless - but have tried to drill it - and that's 
a real bear!  Much easier to drill angle iron.

Hello Peter. 

 

Its been a while since we last talked.

 

The stainless steel for most of these templates are form an old kitchen sink 
that was being thrown away.

but stainless steel cabinets and or shelves are too always open for projects 
for me. when I can find

them. 

Take care.  (and keep in touch.) ;-)

Where did you source the stainless?

Hello  Everyone.

 

I had some free time today, so I made these templates for my Legacy, Only one 
has been tested so far, but I do think most of these should work well for my 
uses.

 

I can use these templates on All of my wood working equipment, both of my 
Legacy's as well the lathes I own.

 

Note: I see and use templates not as the final part of turning, but as a 
general guide for basic shaping of my spindles.

 

Making stainless steel templates is not all that hard, by using an abrasive 
cutting wheel, and some hand files + a wire wheel to remove any burs...  the 
process is pretty easy. (If anyone wants to know more, Please ask.)

Tomorrow I hope to be able to try some of these out on some of my bone turning.

Have a good night everyone.

 

C.A.G.
