proof is in, waiting for the die
« on: February 19, 2010, 12:00:04 PM »
got the first of the dial plates in today. now i am just waiting for the trimming die and then to purchase a hole punch. they should be ready about the middle of March.

they will be trimmed to the circle inscribed and a 25/64" hole will be punched centered on the "x".

let me know what you all think. <<<<<<<<<<<(living in Texas = speak like a Texan!!!)  ;) i cropped the pic so no remarks about my nails, lol.

i'm a gonna have nightmares of my ex g/f calling me from London and trying to sound like a grit! she talks Welsh to me all the time and i can't imagine it with a southern American twist!

the die is in. next week i go and buy a cheap Chinese arbor press and try to order a Whitney-Roper hand press punch and die. it will happen!



i think i should make this my moniker.
