Thanks for the kind words, Larry.


You're very welcome, Pete.


I never posted pics because I thought I might submit it to one of the
hobby machinist magazines. Doubt I'll ever get around to that, and
now that MWDropbox is out of action, I'll have to find a new forum to
post pics.


I took inspiration from the Beaumont Metal Works KMG grinder, but
designed my own with the pneumatic adjustment, shoulder screws for
axles, mostly counter sunk socket head screws, and double tool arm
sockets. That last was a suggestion my son got that I doubt will ever
get used. I'd omit it if I built another.


Double tool arm sockets? Evocative name, anyway.


Any suggestions on posting sites? Do folks have any preferences
between practical machinist and hobby machinist? Or others?


People put things on Pinterest, Flikr, and other places, as well as PM
and other sites. I put my stuff on my website, HM, and Pinterest.
