We received our toolkits on Monday and spent the first part of the day organizing our benches where we will be spending the next year.
First project: The filing block
For this project you need to take a piece of square hardwood stock which is appx. 24mm square and reduce it to 20mm square. Then once this is accomplished you follow a blueprint and apply angles, grooves and slots to the piece. It proved to be good filing and sawing experience.
It took me a total of 3 tries to get a block that was passable and I could turn in. In the end I think mine turned out quite well. I guess I'll know when it is scored and returned.
