- surface grinder setup surface grinder is up & running
things
objects i want to make for the shop
- 7/16" square drive handle for clausing saddle lock
- get an appropriate socket, make a handle, and attach the two
- saddle lock square bolt head fits a 7/16" open wrench, but not the closed end, or a 7/16" 'universal' socket
- a 1/2" 'universal' socket (or closed-end wrench) fits fine, if a little loosely
- magnetic whiteboard 'last organized' charts
- can be affixed to cabinets / tool carts / shelves to show little charts of when they were last thoroughly organized
- idea is to provide a decentralized, low-overhead means of coordinating contents organization / cleanup
- modular table covers for the bridgeport
- modules
- idea is to have them be in sections of 4-10" so they can accommodate the vice moving, &c
- make multiple sizes, so they can be rearranged?
- will need at least two special ones to fit snugly against vice sides, which aren't square
- should have magnets in, so they stick to the table
- blocks that fit (loosely?) into the t-slots, so they register easily
- idea is to have them be in sections of 4-10" so they can accommodate the vice moving, &c
- manufacture
- will have to laser-cut, to get the contours for the vice-hugging sections right
- engrave holes for magnets & mark out t-slot block positions
- screw / glue / staple t-slot blocks down?
- top surface should be flat, so would need to countersink screws carefully
- material
- maso or mdf would be easiest
- plastic (hdpe?) for wear / oil resistence?
- modules
