Rinse & repeat....Machined from K1045 mild steel, these are simple pins and collars. Close tolerances and finish replicated as per samples supplied. Thread is 1/14" x 12UNF. Drilled and tapped 1/8 x 28BSPT to the cross holes for grease. The end result is worth the very long hours put into these.

No, not another repeat. It's a new job! They don't look much but are a vital part in Henderson engines. Machined from #4140 high tensile steel, they are double ended studs with 1/4" x 28UNF male thread sections on each end. The chemical blackening process is purely for corrosion resistance. This batch was 100 off. Both ends machined in a single setup, no turning the job around or adding a 2nd op. Just a little bit of manual code editing and it works well.

The superb cad drawing was supplied by customer. Don't knock it, I still do jobs this way, it takes seconds, not months, and works.

One of my very long term customers asked me for a handful of brass swarf shavings a few months back. I thought it was an odd request, but since I had a 44 gallon drum of the stuff at the time, I bagged a handful for him. It was actually for a friend of his that manufactures her own random style of jewellery. Yesterday he sent me this video of her finished product. Small things like this impress me, someone had an idea, took my scrap material, repurposed it into something different that they can actually profit from. I'm unsure if she does other forms of work, as I've never met her. Apparently, she sells this type of work at our local Fremantle markets. I should probably ask for a few more details to promote her work.

A nice easy job to start the day. These are a cast aluminium leap frog top for children's play ground equipment. Machined to fit steel tubing. Another repeat job completed.
