Thanks again Seamus. I wanted to say why I chose to do it by hand but the reply has gone into the aether. I wanted to experience for myself the old way of doing things. It is salutary to think that I probably laid 50k hammer blows and in excess of 20k file strokes. I know no-one near with a plasma cutter, and I would not trust myself to cut accurately if I dared to ask for a loan of one. It is mild steel so only suitable for occasional use. But there are easier methods!
