Denny,
these are a master straight edge for cross slide,
they will mark 25 x3, is that the size your looking for?

Hi all

My buddy the Ratshooter told me there was someone that had

unfinished

castings for scraping standards. I know there had been some talk

about

cross slides and such but does anyone know of these and who has

them

for sale. After Forrest Addy's class I fee confident that I can

make

my own standard flats and dovetail for some of the work I am

doing.

Also the Ratshooter is working on two scraper hones for keeping a

keen

edge on your scraper. Forrest had a rather crud one he had made

but it

worked great. One thing I did find at the class was Biax scraping
tools hold up better than any other brands that were there. Even

the

ones Forrest made and were for sale. Ratshooter told me he is

photo

documenting the hone project so expect it in the home shop

machinist

magazine in the future. Tim Clarke is his real name and he has

done

several articles for the magazine. The only way we would get him

on

this list is if I give him a SB lathe. Owe trust me he will be

getting

several of them when I kick off."-)))))
