I'm pleased to announce the grand opening of the precision tool grinding and metrology wing of the shop :lmao:...
The "measuring station" has a 12x18 granite slab resting on a tube steel table with a pivot-point adjustable surface. With a flair and penchant for future expansion in-mind, the table was sized to accommodate an 18x24 slab. Not visible in the photo but, on the lower shelf of said table are the "good" micrometers and "JO" (gauge) blocks etc.
To the left of this vast new area (don't bite your tongue while it's planted in your cheek) is the new (to me) tool cutter/grinder. A plastic curtain is yet to be constructed between the two but my preferred supply house (the dollar store) did not have the materials in stock.
Safety warnings are required on all equipment so, signage has been appropriately posted...
