I needed to make a brass connecting rod for a current project, and of
course didn't have the material. What I did have was this piece of
flat brass stock from a recent scrap yard trip. An almost square piece
cut from it would be used.
Not really a lot to it. One end it turned round in the 4 jaw. Then flipped
over, chucked in a 3-jaw, centered and turned round.
A little more turning brings it to shape, and the mill work completes it.
It even looks a little like the picture in the print.
That's always a good thing! :wink:
