This is for all those tool junkies out there. I am no different, and when I saw the tool displayed in the video
here, I literally stopped everything and made myself one.
I used 5mm square steel that one buys at the hardware store.
In fact everything for this tool is easily available at the store.
I drill two holes and tap one side and the other side I drill 3.5mm holes, so they slide .
I cut some wood from those paint mixing sticks one can buy.
I just used some temporary screws until the glue was hard.
Of course, leather strips are also an option.
I use wood like this on my engraving ball as well and then when it is time to replace, I clean it off and put new
pieces on.
Then I used some 3 mm threaded bar and locked it into position at the bottom with some nuts.
I ground them flat on the sides.
Initially I turned some threaded tubing, but I didn’t really like it.
You never know when you need an azure tool.
I made this Azure tool a while ago and it works a treat holding a dial in place when both sides are enameled
simultaneously.
