Default Re: The Hobo Holder - Part II

Hey Kurt, nice work on that.

You know what they say, when your only tool is a hammer, every job looks like a nail? I don't have a mill (outside of the milling attachment on my lathe) so I saw a way you could make this on the lathe and save a little time if you're interested.

If you take your blocks, fixture them in the 4-jaw with a .020" spacer in the middle, you can turn the recess for the nickle. The only issue I see is the fulcrum hole, I imagine you could drill it and ream it the same way but with the spacer in place.

Thanks for sharing,

Rob
