Fabio rocks!
Nov. 29th, 2009 07:52 pmI stand corrected. :)
Fabio is actually perfect. I was trying to read his calibration on the wrong side of him- the ZERO mark is on the output side, not the imput one.
I clearly do need to sopend some time learning to read the measurements, and making notes of how to adapt them to what I do. But Fabio himself needs no adjustment (except maybe for the ingot-rolling-out parts).
I've done some cleaning up on him- tools like this generally come bathed in lots of grease, which needs to be removed. I do need to do more.
And- I have a new wedding ring commission, and I am hoping I can use Fabio for the final smoothing of the forged stock, and get it really precise: so I need to clean him off, AND learn better how to read his settings.
