    Hi Nick,

    The skew is 20 degrees, ( if I remember correctly ) the cutting bevel is 25 degrees as normal, then there's the taper, and the side bevels are 30 degrees for the 9mm and 45 degrees for the 12mm.

    all told there are 5 different planes intersecting at different points and angles, makes for some fun and games grinding out of 60+ RC M2.. But the finished look is pretty nice.

    Ray

    1. Bevelled and tapered. Some still need cutting bevels
    2. Cleanup and transfer bench.

    We have some modifications to make to the surface grinder in the next few days.

    Default My error - July 7

    Look at the April 7 messages.
    Ray said a few months, Helmut defined few as 2-3, and Ray did not object.

    As it happens, that is probably works out pretty close, because, as you can tell by the pictures we are almost finished.

    RayG have those who are in need of replacement chisels given you their updated postal addresses? If not I can try to track them down. When will you be looking to post out the replacements?

    Are their any details on your progress can you provide?

    I have sent them all a PM requested up dated postal address.
