That’s a sweet looking kit you got there yepyep. I love the colours combination.
Thanks~ Yeah! Every time I try a new color theme on my guns looks like an adventure but luckily they turned out well and lovely...

Just black and bluing is a bit boring... Classic tho~ :)

Yepyep - if I can suggest, next time you have to trim a socket screw & you have a bench vise, clamp the screw in the jaws of an electric drill
then with padding, clamp the drill in the vise. Then, use a file on the screw head. That is called a poor man's vice - used this system for many
years, until I ended up with my Dad's lathe after he passed on.
Thanks!! That's a great idea~

Let me put it a try tomorrow and see if my tiny size table vise can hold my drill or not~ :)

I have been actually looking for a rotary tool like this for quite some time but you just inspired me!!
Hey Daryl~ Your "poor man's vise" just worked like a charm! And inspired by this new "feature" of my mini table vise I also developed some other usages on it too! It's really like my 3rd hand now~ [emoji38] [emoji38]

Glad the vice and electric drill worked for you. Back in Smithers in the 1970's, I made a priming device for my muzzleloading rifle, using my poor man's lathe.
This gizmo has 3 parts, 2 of which screw together, to hold a small rifle primer, with the floating firing pin held captive due to riveted ends.
