Following the theme I started earlier with "What is the COOLEST thingyou ever made" post. I would like to know what is the coolest or mostuseful or unique tool you ever made.I am interested in seeing some of the tools people make because theycan;t afford to buy or because what they want does not exist.I made a 25 ton hydraulic press that I use to make damascus forknifemaking.What have you people done. No tool os to large or small (or handy).Bob

I got some pretty heavy adhesive backed Teflon tape from Boeing Surplus. Works very well for that sort of thing. Easy to apply and if you wrap it around the ends, you won't catch the edge and peel it off. Sorry, don't know any other suppliers but they must exist.
