Handscrew rack.
I was not happy with my old handscrew rack.. just a couple of pieces of
2x3 in an L shape. I would have to pull off a bunch of clamps to get to the one I wanted. Anytime I avoid doing something because of the work involved in getting it done, it's time to fix the problem... I solved that today with a new rack, not much work... the biggest problem was finding a place to put my wider rack. See: http://imgur.com/a/wLzRs Also I had some newer rockler handscrews that I use by the router and tablesaw. They did not have a nice riveted stud for the handle. one side had the head formed, the other was flush cut, but I don't like that since it usually backs out and causes the handle to break, or it cuts you. So I created a head forming tool and put a head on the other side. There was actually more pin left but the sleeve was too large. So once I started forming the head it pushed the metal down. Now the head is nice and smooth, and the pin won't back out. -- Jeff |
