edit: Were the transfers left at stock numbers, just cleand out a bit?
any numbesr coming or is this one staying a little more personal of a project.
I'd be interested to see a closeup of .325 sq.
The .325 that I have has too low of a cutter height to get the file under
and get a proper angle from tooth point to mid radius on the the inside of the tooth.
If I lift my file to get that angle, it's going to be cutting into the side plates pretty badly.
Course with a grinder, you can fix the wheel thickness & shape to get around some of that problem.
I looked at my "flat" type files and debated trying to grind one to about half thickness.
But just wasn't sure if I could pull that off without the file doing some sort of curl
from the imbalanced stress.
You guys in the machine shops should know what I'm referring to.
Plus the fun of trying to keep a bit of water on it while I used a hand held , electric,
grinder was another source of over thinking things.
Also I wnet to the photobucket site and can I (barely) see the that the bar is a replaceable/riveted nose.
Sort of a bit of a hump where it looks to join the main bar.
that's why I wondered if the bar had been cut down.
