Conchita, the first image below showing you some of the
prototypes of my "My chopstics cases".
Baby feeders went mat today.
Above is my meek attempt to find the centre line with my
equi-distance finder (or centre finder) and I did draw
the lines, but the result was only marginally better.
This is because those posing surfaces are not well
defined, that is they are not exactly pararrell at all.
So. starting with the theoretical centre line
does not guarantee you can keep the right trench profile.
Actually, there is a more serious problem. It is the (peg,
eventually magnet and soft iron piece) positioning of
the holes and how I make these holes.
Up until this afternoon I drew my jig lines on the same side
of the pieces. That meant, also, that I relied on these lines
when I made holes. I will talk more about this issue, but
just take a look at the above image. This is showing you that
two belt sanders are operational at the same time. The one
at the left has a grain 40 coarseness and this helps me a lot!
You do not want to spend ages trying to solve uneven distribution
of wall thickness. 40 does help a lot!
Here above, you see two settings and the upper one is wrong!
You should not stick these pieces on top of each other like
this and make a through hole.
This is because, at the end of the day you will have to flick
back one of them and find that your peg will not easily
go through the holes, all due to slight positioning errors.
Today, I found that I should start with the configuration
like B, because no matter how off-set the holes may be,
this arrangement at least ensures that pegs will go right in!
That is all too important as far as the magnets and the soft iron
pieces are concerned, because they will be inserted later.
Wooden pegs are dummys for them during sanding process.
There may be some more minor discoveries, but I am inclined
to think that I have discovered all main operational procedues
for mas-producing chopstics cases.
