I've milled new cutting tools to make the perfect dome in wax using the lathe, then made a double dome, and I'm about to make one in every finger size and in one, two, three, and maybe four rows with the whirl of my wheel. Using the modified (by the mill) carbide bit I've lathed grade 8 steel to hold rings down dead center, then milled a perfect 90 degree channel in the middle of a 6mm band with no effort. Started working with Vector 32 a CAD program and began to think what would be the harm of selling out, and rationalized it while doing dishes.... "I could make designs that were not necessarily mass produced just limited to a few perfect settings for just a few different stones, and by golly wouldn't making marquise or heart bezels using this "Vector 32" and my mill save sick amounts of time? Besides I have the talent to do it already by hand so lines 14 and 15 of "Does it make Beer" does not apply.:) Rationalization #2- I can think of 4 people who would be insanely jealous. N'est pas Gui? Terminator is coming to get me and I'm letting him. |
