File buttons

[thehomeengineer]

Hi Paul
Thank you for the kind words.
Just another point about using buttons:
You do not have to use silver steel sometimes I make them out of steel due to the size of radius to be cut and leave soft. I could case harden I guess but often it is only one or two radius’s that need filing so I don't bother. I just go a bit more careful when filling with these softer buttons. Soft steel buttons also work on the softer materials Brass, Aluminium etc. However, for best results whenever possible use the hardened buttons.
Thank you for taking the time to view
