Peter Sanders,

The two tone finish was not intentional but it does set it off nicely. Thanks for noticing!

wizard69,

I have to agree with you. I can't remember what happened last week so it is nice to have the info right at hand when I need it.
Thank you!

Very nice work. They look "store bought".

I like adding the numbers but the only issue I have with engraving the cutter numbers is..... for some stupid reason there are oh somany diferent numbers and they seem to change them when they wish to....( for every thing made these days not just carbides.) just when you find something you like...it's gone....or changed.... or droped by the seller you buy from most of the time....

Always top quality work from Old Toolmaker ... any pics of the cuts they made ... love seeing chips and the aftermath results.

Kudos and thanks for sharing!
