Bill,

Another great place to ask these questions would be the
rec.crafts.metalworking newsgroup.


I've enjoyed following several of your posts there.

I thought it was worth reporting that they appear to have a more difficult
time staying on topic in that newsgroup then we do here in the Wreck! : )


That they do! There are some metalworkers who double as survivalists who
think posting to multiple newsgroups at the same time is acceptable and fun.
Pfft.

By the way, I ran across a seemingly "great" book yesterday, "Modern
Toolmaking Methods", by Franklin T. Jones, 1915. It's available for free
download via Google (books). I think it transcends woodworking or
metalworking. I'll leave it to someone who's actually read it to comment
further if they want to. It left me with a "I wish I had found this
sooner" sort of feeling.


I'll check out the links posted in the follow-ups. Thank you.
