Making things in the pnw. Mostly metal, sometimes art, lots of machines.

It may be a while before I go back to #metalsmithing, but I’m still making things out of metal. I bought the raw casting for this straight edge 6 years ago and I’m finally getting around to machining it. Next up, scraping.

This horizontal mill is one of my favorite tools for box making. After owning it for 10 years I’m finally getting around to adding digital scales so I don’t screw up so often. 🙄
