Damascus steel ring with brass liner to celebrate our 12th anniversary.
This one was quite a challenge, since it involved some forging and etching in addition to the usual metal turning to get a nice damascus pattern on the outside of the ring. The liner is made out of an old brass pipe fitting from our house renovation, so it actually was with us for a significant part of our lives.

Okay, I did *NOT* see this one coming:
The least-expensive option I can find for a left-handed ball screw assembly with the recirculating nut (at least without going through a whole quoting process) is *mcmaster*.
Their value prop is that whatever weird thing you need, you can get it next-day or so, but the cost is usually quite high.
Increasingly, I'm finding that they've become my first go-to because their prices on lots of stuff is actually really reasonable.

Hi there, I'm Phil
I'm currently giving mastodon.radio a try, thanks to the admins for having me!
I'm a #maker, with #electronics and (some) #metalworking skills. I'm also a #hamradio #AmateurRadio operator with a UK full licence, under callsign M0OFX (and one of the three joint and equal holders of the M0YIP club).
I'm also into #ReverseEngineering and currently working on the Jerrold/GI Analog Cable TV system (see #analogcable) and hoping to build my own #CATV head-end.

Skipped a few steps and drew the rest of the owl - finished the pentagram necklace I've been working on for a month

Two hours of hand filing in this heat and humidity was the worst idea ever, but good progress at least

Moved account #introduction with hashtags.
I used to work in #tech, but retired 4 years ago. You may have seen my name in an about box. I spent the first 3 years of retirement without a computer.
I read. A lot.
I play with wood, doing #woodworking and some #metalworking. Among other things, I have made my own screwdrivers. You can find some of my projects on my blog.
I cook. And sometimes jot down the #recipes on my blog.
I like #dogs. And #birbs. And sometimes I take pictures of them.
