Default Recent metalworking projects

What were 'your' recent metalworking projects?
Wes



I just posted to the dropbox a set of files named
Chain_Wheel
that are about a device I made recently for our fire dept.
Now
that I'm in retirement mode I can take on time consuming
projects like this one. Sure I could have bought one but
what's
the fun in that, eih? It was a study in math and workholding
for
sure! I've considered removing the chain guide on the slack
side
as that point is never under load going up or down. There
could
be a pileup if one link for some reason won't behave in the
guide.
At least the operating speed is slow anyway. Perhaps we can
get more projects listed, eih? What do you have to show off?
