    A Carving platform

    Hi friends,

    Here is another one, one of the things I'm the most proud of, how useful it is.
    It is a carving platform.



    Actually, it's not limited to carving, it's very useful for planing little thin pieces for instance.

    Everything is detailed in this article :

    Notice at the end my easy way to mill an hexagonal head for a screw.

    Thanks in advance for you comments.

    Beautiful work on that sliding stop. That's another feature I don't see often on carving aids.
