Re: make - forge? - wedge for feathers-and-wedge rock-split

Hi all.
Thanks for helping me develop thoughts.
To expense-wise putting the horse before the cart, maybe get hold of
some spring steel from eg. a truck, and either grind direct to shape or
forge and retreat.

Also, got some more wedges on-order, so might take 3 wedges and try
grinding a millimetre off either side of the wedge and see how they
perform.
Am used to using an angle-grinder.
Good strategy for removing a fixed amount can be to gash with a slitting
disk to depth you want to remove (in this case 1mm) - you can measure
accurately how deep a gash is - then generally grind until you just
remove the gashes.
Knowing where you are going with it, you cna control grinding rates and
temperatures - don't change the material.

Smooth - finish by gliding on the side of the disk...  Well used to
doing this to make tight joints / flat surfaces.

Will see where all this takes me.
