I know that this will come as no surprise to all of you that have purchased/commissioned tools from Rick Herrell ( @rherrell ), but I feel like the service that Rick provides for us and our community is tremendous and deserves as many shout outs as possible!
I may have gone a bit overboard, but hey, as Rick has in his signature...
"The pain of using a cheap tool lingers long after the joy of saving money has passed"
Back in November I ordered a Tailstock/Banjo Clamp, a Tool Post Stop Collar and Dedicated Dial Indicator Post, all were packaged securely and shipped quickly. Top quality stuff. I was hooked.
Then earlier this month I jumped in with both feet, Custom Mandrels for kitless pens, Nib Section Step Drills, Tool Rests, ER32 Sliding tap/die holder and some custom ends for 1/2" x 13 TPI threaded rod to make @TonyL 's 4 Stage DIY Buffing System. These include a 2MT end for the headstock and a female 60 degree for the tailstock end to accept a live center.
Here is a picture of all my new toys. If you haven't given Rick a try... Just Do It, you will wonder why you waited!
Thanks Rick!
