Rob,

What CAD program do you use?

I like your material call-out on the drawing.

Shiny CAD to match his shiny camera

Hi Rob , its coming along well, looking very neat too, how shapr are the blades on your shear ? , I sharpened mine and it made a big difference, the sheet used to try to tilt over as you cut but just slices through now .
The bits fit the drawings anyway

Cheers Mick

Well I may have been wrong about the scruits, but I don't think I'm wrong about this being one of the best builds I have ever followed! Excellent work. Really pisses me off because my workshop is undergoing the refurb it has needed for 20 years and all my stuff, including my Allday forge, is crammed up against one wall. Soon I will be finished, but not soon enough. This thread makes me want to be back at it!
