Dimitrise,

Very good photos, description and video. I know it takes more time to put this level of presentation together but it is so useful to see the details for creating a similar project.

Thank you for sharing,

Paul Jones

A well deserved award, Dimitris!

That looks like a fantastic tool. And the work was mostly by hand. You have great skills and certainly deserve the Homemade Tool of the Week Award.

Thank you very much, Jon! Glad to hear that the forum pageviews broke the record, again.
This tool can easily be made, especially for those that they have a milling machine; I would love to see others making or upgrade it. Thanks again!

Best regards
Dimitris
