The owner and maker of Giesswerk parts suddenly passed away I believe in 2020. His brother was carrying on the business, but I think just selling what inventory they had, not making new parts. I could be mistaken about the later, but worth asking. He made some really nice parts.
Those are really nice addition Robert. I love the cast in handles.

Re: RT Late Tiger One
My back soon kills me, but when I work with Brass I forget the pain.
So I did some Brass work today.
I had to put the Brass 0,8mm in my Mill and take away 0,5mm material at the back. So I can make a nice bend in the material.
Have a nice day

Re: RT Late Tiger One
Tomorrow, the patiently demanding job starts.
Soldering all 0.55mm sticks to the side of the frame 0.8mm around, edge to edge.
Found out they were made that way, and not just put the frame on the grid.

Re: RT Late Tiger One
Hi Robert,
Can you tell me the diameter of the wire that the manufacturer has used to make the mesh and the size of each mesh square centre to centre please?
Many thanks
