Thread: M2 HSS Turning Chisel Batch Order

Option 1 gets my vote.

Thanks,

Option 1 for me also.

Option one thank you.

Regarding the 7 mm sheet versus the 6.5 mm sheet, the blokes interested in the firmer chisels, and turning chisels unanimously would prefer the 7 mm thick sheet. The blokes interested in the plane blades would be happy with 5.5 mm.

Therefore I think we will go for the 7 mm sheet and we will water grind down the 7 mm to 5.5 mm for blokes for the wanting plane blades. For everyone else we will make the applicable tools 7 mm thick.

I got a quote from Russell the waterjet cutter and I have a quote for the steel sheets.

I have therefore been able to work out the price for the turning chisels and scrapers the tentatively firm price at $30 per turning chisels and $20 per scraper.

We have only used 0.86 on the 7 mm sheet, so we have a spare left, for members. PM me if you want pick up more turning chisels.

We are however 0.3 sheets over in the 4.5 mm thick sheets, so we need to either drop some things. Or we need to fill 0.7 more of a sheet. It will be much simpler to trim back the order remembering that the batch orders were opened up to turners to fill the sheet.

Would people be willing to drop the scraper tips?

You can add a 20mm skew to the 7mm order for me.

I would like a strip about 25mm x 250mm x 7mm to make a draw knife out of. If it can be fitted on the sheet.

I would be happy to drop the 6mm skew if that helps.

Thumbsucker, I was probably the last to put my hand up for scrapers, so you can delete me from the list.
Thanks for your effort!

Cheers , John

I'm happy to drop the scraper tips if it helps.

Thanks,

You can cancel my order for the scraper tips.


Peter.

I'm reluctant to let my scraper tips go. How about we move the scraper tips from the 4.5mm sheet to the the 7mm sheet? That would help solve two problems with one move.

Thicker would mean less vibration with the scraper tip and all we would need is a longer screw.

+1 to Neil's suggestion.
