hi all,
I'm feeling a bit Blue Peter this xmas. I've got access to some odd bits of steel, ali & brass. And maybe some small bits of copper* & titanium, but I don't feel very confident to machine those!
Is there anything that you peeps like to knock up as cheepo presents for fambly and friend? I've only got a lathe & a drill press, so anything that involves milling would have to be filed out by hand. Or made from wood & routed?
I thought about key-fobs (small roundy bits with, like, shapes lathed in) or book-marks (sheet ali with shapes sand-blasted on).
Not looking for anyone's secrets & specialities, just some ideas & discussion.
Thanks
Ed
*I know that at current prices it may be better to flog the copper & buy gold, but these are small offcuts I can have for machining, not selling.
