How cool is that! I wondered what types of films you had made (you'd told me you were a camera man). Never having thought about it before, I didn't realize metal was shaped using a lathe. This man was extremely talented. I have an article with a picture of him in front of one of the "ships in a bottle" he'd made. He'd made a chain of solid wood - a yard long - without ANY breaks in it. It was like one of those puzzles that you just keep looking for the "trick".
Wish I could see those videos you made. I love learning about the old hand tools. The work that went into buildings, etc. - cathedrals!. I think I should look for a book on the history of tools.
Wonder if JasonB would have any use for these? (Metal working)
