    Leaving yourself something to hang onto is essential. Model engineers should scratch the above on the inside of their safety glasses lenses.
    Marv the same holds true for a lot of things even in the larger scale. and especially when dealing with things like spool valves for hydraulic manifolds and such.
    I had my own propitiatory valving that I used on the elevators I used to build. Later I went to poppet style cartridge valves but I made my own manifold bodies creating creating the dozen cavities on a pure mechanical very old Bridgeport without any DRO was laborious, it was much easier to do tool changes and complete 1 cavity at a time than it was to do all of 1 process then the next until the cavity was formed. the last step was a special ground burnishing tool for each size cavity
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products
