Lovely job Colin - you went to so much trouble cutting the gears, including all the calculations, that it would be tragic for any of them to get damaged. The box looks very much in keeping with the era of the coil winder, which is such a nice thing to own even if it rarely gets used in anger!
Glad that the info on the comb jointing jig has proved so useful.
In an era when so many know the price of everything but the value of nothing, there's great satisfaction in using skill and imagination to make something for nothing, from what would otherwise be scraps of wood destined for the skip.
You did well to turn the feet with the toolrest so far from the workpiece too!
David.
