Making Small Workshop Tools Workshop Practice Series

Workshop Practice Series 14 – Making Small Workshop Tools by Stan Bray. Making tools and workshop equipment forms a major part of the model engineering hobby for some, but for others, it is regarded as something of a chore, the manufacture of models being the prime concern. Frequently, however, there is a need for items that cannot always be purchased, or perhaps are needed at a time when obtaining them is not convenient. In these instances making the necessary tools or whatever becomes the only possible solution.
