Thank you Michel.

[@nobbysworkshop]

Brilliant idea Tom. Wonderful gift for someone. I guess you could cold blue it, to help protect against rust. Nice side project. Glad you didn’t suffer too much damage in the storm. Take care. Nobby

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Thanks Nobby. I thought about doing some sort of protectant, but I do like the look of the gray steel so I kept it as is.

[@Randysshop]

What a nice little level Tom great work. Dogs you have to love them and some times on their terms.

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Thanks Randy. Yep Khaos is one awesome shepherd.

Thanks Matty. Good to hear from you.

[@TedRoza]

G'day Tom. Very nice little project. Just shows how complex a small level can be with all the fiddly work involved.
Glad you came out so well through the storm. Well done overal.
Ted

Tom - Iv'e only got one thing to say - " Are you on the Level " I also like the the corner rounding end mill in the Quick Change Tool Holder . --- Jim

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Thanks Jim. I hate being crooked. 🤣

[@wsl3666]

Good doggy

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

He is.

[@zoltannagy1813]

Nice little job Tom. Why not make them out of aluminium so they don't rust? I love how you include Mr Kaos in every video...he has you well trained!

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

I just chose 12L14 because I found it at a really good price from a E-Bay seller. Not to mention it machines nice.

[@mkegadgets4380]

Great video I’m very interested in making some for Christmas, do you have any plans or drawings available? Look forward to your next video.

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Thanks. No real plans. I just basically copied the Starrett one. You can make them any size you want really.

[@mjwint]

Tom, can you give a better link for the Secret Santa project? A lot of other stuff pops up when I try to search. Have a merry merry and a happy happy.

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Hmm. I maybe the first one to post a video under #secret santa 2024. I know Steve at Firehouse Custom Fab just posted a short video explaining the project.
