Slippy, my first

Great start indeed, congratulations!! :)
I also left the nicknail out on my first take, and am currently trying a way to cut one on scrap with unsatisfactory results... i don't have a mill or surface grinder and consider insightable the nicks obtained with the dremel cut-off wheels...better nickless 100%!!!
Any suggestions for cutting the poor-man nicknail? ;)

Could one not use a cone-shaped grinding point in a drill press, and fixture the blade in the drilling vise? Its not good for the drill press, of course, but I bet some of us have done worse...
 
Mark, Your first came out terrific. Thanks for mentioning my WIP, so glad it helped. Your next ones will be even better.

Thanks Bruce,
I hope so, beginners luck I suppose, lots of improvements needed I'm trying to speed things up, should be finishing my first lock back next week then back to slippys.
