So for the heck of it I thought I'd take my camera along for the ride...
this is work in progress so no finished shots.
some may remember me asking about cannabalizing an old CI surface plate
to make some tooling.. well, after looking for a CI blank big enough, and
trying to beg/borrow/steal/buy a camelback with no luck, the surface
plate looked ever more appealing.
I hope you guys enjoy playing along and if I could get any comments,
criticisms, pointers, tips, tricks it'd be greatly appreciated!
My first real attempt at video editing, too. Originally started talking /
voice-over but 'thats not what I sound like!' and when some local HSMers
(italian) got wind of what I was doing they wanted to see it too (suckers! )
I thought I'd take the Muellernick approach and subtitle it (as its easier
to change languages)
enjoy:

(ps for anyone who's even thinking marble, I tried that (despite the voice
of reason on the forum) -- its readily accessible and I got a dozen or
so "cut offs" about the right size (24"x2") -- free!
ALL of them had a dip somewhere in the polished surface. The best one was
5/6 thou low on center) .. I thought if I checked enough of them I'd find one
that was passable.
