Great content

I’ve just wondering if you’ve got any photos you can send me of the insides of your lightning hole wooden press die you made regards Jason

I sold the project back in 2015. (Medical reasons.). I have no idea which hard drive my Sonex photos are on, (I am a photographer with bunches of hard drives...). That said, the male portion had a base made out of 1/4" aluminum. It's diameter was the size of what the lightening hole was specified to be. And, there was the proper angle / flare ground around it's circumference. Scrap wood was screwed to the "top" of the aluminum. The female part of the die was made out of scrap material as well. It was a "cup" that slid over the top of the male portion of the die. That is about all that I remember! If I do find photos, I will forward them to you.
