That fluting on the barrel is wicked. Who did that? Have you tried grating cheese with it yet? Tenderize some steaks?

Re: Recent build

Nice work, but it negates the advantage of fluting. The barrel stiffness will now be the same as the smaller of the two diameters.

Fluting is to increase the stiffness to weight ratio.
