That book would be an interesting read , But at $141. plus tax it is to rich for my blood . I will keep faking it until I make it.

Exactly what I thought. I do have a couple of metal working shop books but it seemed to me I can fake much of it and when in doubt I come here and ask from others who either are properly learned or successfully faking it for many years, which I call experience. Hehe! I'm not building submarines after all. :-- :creeper: :bee: :cheers:

Well said! Although after following along with your projects I’d say you both are about at the end of the faking it stage! :cheers:
