fritz15 - Machine Made - Last UPDATE 10/31

After shaping the outside of the tailcap I started with the inside:

Again, measuring, this time the inside:

Everything is ready for threading the tailcap:

Here I used a tool holder with a Carbid cutting plate:

So, the tailcap is nearly done and ready to be parted off. I just added a chamfer to the inside of the tailcap as well as to the threads. Always add chamfers to everything :smiley: There will be no sharp edges and it feel and look very smooth and well made:

And the tailcap is parted off:

A picture of the inside (you see a chamfer at every edge):

After the exhausting process of making the tailcap my manager and engineer made some lovely lasagna for dinner :slight_smile: :

And after that I was strengthened enough to start on the body:

More measuring, but the diameter was still a little too big:

So I turned it down until the diameter was right, and I then measured again, just to be sure:

Thatโ€™s it for today, thanks for reading and more tomorrow!
