Conchita, I am being busy on the coating front.
The first pic for today is the salt/powder spoons
that wnet through the 1st imersion coating.
Short stemmed Chinese spoons as well as the egg
holders are seen here.
Some baby feeders are also being coated in some
antity.
Here, you see my table ladle, egg placers, and
long stemmed Chinese spoons. Also seen are
very small straight stemmed spoons.
Here above, you see them better, I think.
Here, some rabits and long stemmed forcs. These will be
coated as soon as nail beds have spare areas.
Here, some more baby feeders are being born.
Today's work ended with the templates for the deep
cavity table ladle, not exactly yet completed.
Conchita, I talked about computerising
my current milling machine. I am postponing comupterisaion
a while.
This is because I decided to purchase a much more
powerfull milling machine. It will set me back
a lot and I cannot afford the driver and the
step motors.
They are also very expensive...
My current thinking is this. Wood working as it is currently
practised, not just by me, but also by other poeple
around the world, and here I am talking about
non-professional workers, like me, may well change.
At the end of the day you need to computerise your
milling machine, but wood working with a milling machine
will have to prevail...
Why? Simply because you can step into a new horizon
with your milling machine. Yes, you have those who
are renowned for their craftmanship with their
extremely intricate artefacts, all made by hand.
I greatly admire their skills and worship them in awe.
However, they are dying away, sooner or later.
With your milling machine, you can approach them,
I think. I may be wrong...
They are a patient lot, aren't they? Quite adept at
repetitive processing. I am not one...
Take a case of an egg placer. You need to create 24 holes
in a tiny plate. I used my milling machine,
but it is a laborious task.
Although now shown here, think of the toast holders
with all those grooves. With my current less poweul
milling machine I cannot create a single groove
even in one go. My new mwchine will allow me to do just
that...
Oh..., I would be rambling on...
