    THANK YOU ... Usually the words "Tool of the Week" associated with my name refers to my attitude that week *grin* ... Will have to think about what color shirt ~ White? or Black?

    Ended up using the 1st test part Brass Knob on my Lathe's Tool Post Handle... Handle was metric thread, so I used the lathe to cut about an inch off the handle length and thread it for 3/8-16.

    The new image with the Brass Handle Knob on the Lathe can be seen at the bottom of the webpage Post at:

    ... Also a Brass Hammer head made from the same 1.5" Hex.

    -- CHEERS!!
