Nicely Done Eric! Like the combo rig! God Bless Mike

Conrad's on the new "Toy"! God Bless Mike

I agree with Laurence that there are many who represent themselves as professional sharpeners but are not. My Sister brought me a knife I had made for her many tears ago. She was very upset. The Sharp Pro at the mall sharpened it for her, then made the comment to her that the steel wasn't any...

VERY Nice! I agree with Laurence, that ray skin sets it off! Great Job! God Bless Mike

I do have a question on "polished" vs "Grippy" edges. I sharpened a set of knives for a Restaurant owner/Chef as a favor. No charge. While he liked the fact that the knives were sharper than he had ever had them. He did complain that his medium chef (8" Shun) had trouble biting the skin on a...

Beautiful! How does the Kirinite grind? Does it burn easily? God Bless Mike

Nice commercial! God Bless Mike

Thanks for the link! Lots of good information. The one I am looking at I believe is a Delbert Eely design. Maybe if he is out there he will chime in? Thanks and God Bless Mike

Fred I have never bought from them but they seem to sell a lot of blacksmith equipment. Just my $0.02 they seem a bit high on the price. Might look local to you. I see quite a few in my area on craigslist. Might give them a look. God Bless Mike

Don These are marked 5-C on the face of the collet. Ring a bell? God Bless Mike

As I just got a surface grinder and don't really know its capabilities yet, I shouldn't be thinking of modifying it. BUT. I have seen many of you convert from stone to 2x72 belt. Just curious on a couple of things. First and foremost, how accurate is a belt compared to a stone? Is spring...

Thanks guys, that's what I wanted to know! God Bless Mike

My beautiful Bride got me a small wheel attachment for Fathers day, but no wheels! Cant afford several, just curious what size you guys use most often? Thanks and God Bless Mike

The new mill is home and running! Now to figure out how to use it! Practiced tonight on the block that I use as a bench anvil, first tried a 2" facing mill (?) which moved material well enough, and quickly but was not too crazy about the finish. Went to a 3/8" carbide end mill and got a MUCH...

Thanks John

Well I go pick them up in the morning. From what I am seeing in the photos the mill has 15-20 collets various sizes, a fell set of clamping things(?), a vise, and has power feed. The surface grinder has a 18" magnetic chuck, and 11 assorted wheels. Will give a full report after I pick them up...

Great information Mike, appreciate you sharing it. I have used a "hot box" for years now. I converted an old military foot locker. 2 - 100watt bulbs on a Christmas light timer. It cycles 6 hours on 6 hours off. I keep ALL my natural handle material in there. Stag as well as wood. I have some...

Murph have you been riding that bike in the noon day sun again?? Thinking it may have effected you! ;) And yes, your only an hour away! You can come and play on it any time you like! Great pics you have been posting of Mia, she is growing! God Bless Mike
