Today has been a good at the maker space, one member was rebuilding their bbq in the welding area, another was repairing a fan, I was working on my little d-bit cutters, and a group of young students were working on doing the composite lay up of a part for a solar powered boat.

I love the way people are working on such varied and interesting projects. The community of support and knowledge sharing is also wonderful.

Today has been a good day.

Things! I made things!! I pair of custom D bit cutters. The top one is 88° and designed for deburring 90° holes. The lower one is 92° and is for milling mitre channels in brass.

They still need hardening, and sharpening, and in the case of the deburring one, gluing into the handle.

But I'm pleased with where I got them to today.

Finally actually achieved something in the workshop. Been stuck in such a rut recently.

Whilst I've not been making much recently. I did reorganise my member box. I used to have one 35l XL really useful box with everything in it. I've now added a 9l box and put all my machining tools in there. For most projects I only need this box, and it's a lot easier to grab from the shelf and take to the machines. I may want to 3s print some organiser bits in there for the collets etc... too. But for now. It's a good quality of life improvement.
