Finished the tension leaf spring (damper).
Move on now to making the tension rod crank handle. From MDF the handle itself plus two blocks to hold the 5/16” nut coupler.
Marked the centre of each one and bored 25mm holes with a Forstner bit and created the hex shape with a keyhole saw.
Ready to epoxy.
When it cures I’ll shape the handle on the 8” bandsaw then sand on the disc & belt sander.
A knob on the end will complete this job.
