I am wanting to cut a 5 x 2.5 in card scraper to a smaller size. It is SAE1074 carbon tempered spring steel.
My hopeful result is 3 or 4 smaller pieces that would be the blades for tools to cut half-blind dovetails. I would need to build up the back/spline to support the pounding, and have a tang for a handle.
Pretty is a favorable result, but functional is the goal.
The idea is from the Rob Cosman tool, the Kerf X-10.
No, I am not trying to market a knock-off, just wanting to try things.
I will be in Tuesday night for the Solidworks class, and can try to make “Tool time with Tim” Thursday to go over any thoughts/help available. I already have a couple of the scrapers in hand.
Thanks
