    Hello,

    I am a retired Tool and Die Maker and have just recently joined HomemadeTools.net and am just beginning to find my way around here. I have enjoyed viewing all the new tools and inventions and builders never cease to amaze me with their creations. I thoroughly enjoy this site.
    I have attached a picture (I think) of the Quorn Tool and Cutter Grinder I built over a period of about 12 years of on and off work.

    Not bad! FYI old_toolmaker has some nice new offerings in the plans market. He may not want to link to them, but I will

    Jon,
    With me, it is not a question of wanting to link to my plans. But How? I have a learning curve to go through.
