Today, quite a lot of Chinese spoons went mat,
along with a similar number of forc-knives and
mini scrapers (no formal name yet).
My stock is building up and I am most
pleased about it...
The first image below indicating the status at
which rice handlers are now. One standing is
coating ready.
I actually have 7 more outside this image and
I may not work on them any further until these
are proved to sell.
Here below, just showing you where I am
with respect to brush hangers. One was delivered
to S's today, with the saucepan bed. Hope they will
sell...Oh, I forgot to mention that these parts
for the hangers were rounded at the edges.
Here below, those edge rounded pieces are now
ready for coating. Since I am not going to
coat them with my usual polyurethane I would
normally coat them in my bedroom, but I will
not be doing that this evening, as I have a large
number of chopstics to deal with.
You see a board in this image. It is so obvious
what it is meant to be for. What do you call it?
Washing board? I am not sure.
Anyway, I was asked to coat this for A's.
She had bought it for JPY 700 and intends to
sell one (once coated by me) for JPY 1100.
All this makes me think...
I am not involved in this transaction except
my coating labour. All she can hope for is
JPY 400. If I ask for my time and coating
material her gain would be less. It is not that
I will ask for my bit. The idea here is that
I can make this myself, for a lot less...
Perhaps, at something like JPY 120...
Not only that, this is so much like my
toast placers. My gut feeling is that I will
produce something which will act as a shallow
saucer on one side and the toast placer on
the other side, something along that line...
All these ideas are only possible because I now
have a much more powerful milling machine.
In fact, at S's we talked about my pierce box
having a dark top layer (cemented at the top).
In order to do that I will need to loose
something like 5mm thicknes from the top of
cube. Again, this process is made ever
easy with my milling machine...
For that matter, the replacement 5 mm thick
dark top layers can be easily fabricated
by the same machine...
No need for planing..., that is the idea!
