Hi shovel80 - welcome to HomemadeTools.net :welcome:

What kind of tools are you interested in building?

Hi Terr,

Welcome! :welcome:

Now we're going to need to see some pics of your '80 Shovelhead… :cool:

What are you working on at the moment?

Ken

What got me here to begin with is the need for a Tailstock for my Milling machine!.....I want to get the tools together in order to cut round barrels into Octagon or half Octagon barrels.
I see many interesting Builds here!!....
My Bike is actually a '74 Shovel with 80" Flywheels.....I'll have to post a pic soon!

Thanks, Terry

Now I want to know what you're planning to build with those Octagonal barrels. Sharps, maybe? :cool:

Nice-looking Shovel!

Ken

Glad you joined us, shovel80. Welcome to the forums! :welcome:

Ken,

I'm planning on modifying round barrel blanks to half round for Schuetzen rifles I have.
I don't have enough travel on my mill to do full Octagon. I shoot a Schuetzen Match Monthly as well as a BPCR Silhouette Match Monthly with my wife as my Partner.

Thanks, Terry
