Shop made beading scraper
On a recent project I required a number of evenly spaced beads. I made a
beading scraper from a broken baseball bat, an old square shank screwdriver, and a few cutters from an old Craftsman bench saw molding cutter which hasn't been used in 30 years. It worked very well, so I ground a few cove cutters which are shown below with a maple sample piece. It would be easy to make a dovetail undercut bit from one of the square cutters in the molding set. The old screwdriver was so hard that I had to draw temper with a propane torch before I could cut it and drill and tap the hole for the socket head screw. They don't make them like they used to! http://home.earthlink.net/~kvaughn65j/bead_scraper.jpg http://home.earthlink.net/~kvaughn65...per_cutter.jpg http://home.earthlink.net/~kvaughn65...per_sample.jpg For those who may be interested, I show some other shop made lathe tools on the lathe page on my vanity website: http://home.earthlink.net/~kvaughn65j/lathes.html -- Ken Vaughn Visit My Workshop: http://home.earthlink.net/~kvaughn65/ |

a few cutters from an old Craftsman bench saw molding cutter which
hasn't been used in 30 years. Great idea. I have one of these that also hasn't been used for years. I'll be trying your idea soon. Thanks Earle Rich Mont Vernon, NH |
