@tjmhotrod I thought I would try Engine Turning. This is a nod to the old skool race cars and hot rods from a bygone era. #cratex #cratexsticks #hamb #hopupmagazine #hopuplive #earlyracing #vintageracing #hotrods #vintageinspired #vintageindustrial #metalwork #metalworking #engineturning #engineturned #metalworks #cratexsandiego #hotroddash
@402bossman Doing a little engine turning with some Cratex Sticks on my mill @cratexsandiego. Jamming out to some Buddy Guy trying to give this billet valley plate some character! #smithbergracing #earlyhemi #chryslerhemi #oneoff #custom #cratex #engineturning #fishscales #jeweling #adamsandsmithberg
@402bossman When your heads are going on a unique car and you need a detail to help stand out. Badass set of Mastodon Early Hemi heads finally near completion. Using some Cratex Sticks that I got from #cratexsandiego to do the engine turning on the ends of these heads. #tbt #throwbackthursday #smithbergracing #earlyhemi #oneoff #custom #aafuelcoupe #nostalgia #nitrofuelcoupe #tedbrine #jeweling #engineturning #fishscales #cratex #cratexsticks #cratextools #cratexabrasives #cratexrod #cratexmanufacturing #cratexproject
Engine turned TA shifter bezel. This is the first time I've used cratex, it worked well, easy to turn down to any diameter.
#goofinoff with a chunk o @cratexsandiego tonite on this homemade little guage panel for an #flathead run in stand I'm building. #quickanddirty but I found that atf works really well for a bit o lube on the panel. thought the drill press was gonna be too fast, but it worked out ok. #cratex

Nice way to start off a beautiful day! Dash piece I engined turned for my father's @barrysmithberg 37 Chevy 2 Door Sedan. @cratexsandiego #smithbergracing #oneoff #custom #showcarsmatter
It's nice to take a break from the usual and tackle a new challenge. A customer called and asked if we could create a couple of engine turned stainless panels for his 1942 Fiat Topolino dash if he provided patterns. We said "No problem!" I'm real happy with how they came out and think he will be too! #stainless #fiat #topolino #engineturned #oldschool #custom

@jamesyocum - Working on a toolbox hutch for my box at work. These are Blum hinges that I thought would be cool. Next I will skin it with some .063 aluminum. #toolbox #hutch #blum
