@freecad Working on a clone of the no longer made Marlco clamp knurler on this #FreecadFriday ! One part left to make, and then plenty of tweaks to discover -- I'm sure. A friend expressed interest in chipping in on the technical drawings. Poor fool. I've been pretending that the model is the hard part and not the gajillion fits and tolerances to think through.

Earlier today I was working on a holiday gift: the parts of a number 305 burr puzzle. More slots to mill, then heat treat, then ground all over. Hoping to a precision fit...

Screenshot of a partial Freecad assembly. The model is a clamp knurling tool. Six metal blocks on a technical drawing. The metal blocks are coated with blue dye and have some slots cut out of them. The technical drawing says "Burr No. 305" and has hand-written notes and labels.

@NegativeK It's been a while since I've knurled a part, satisfying process and even more so when with a tool you've designed and fabricated yourself.
