    That's strange, have you checked your platen for straightness?

    Taking the dive into knife making

    Thanks Laurence. Three will be pieced together for my trip, the rest I will put extra time and love into when I get back and don't have a timeline.

    Had a HELL of a time fitting up the pommel plate. Learned lots of things on this one. What a headache.

    Ceramic Glass can also be another option. I will be ordering one when I get back from Blade.

    Taking the dive into knife making

    Beveled some more knives today, almost ready for HT. Also cut more blanks for a stick tang carving knife. Wasn't sure how these two designs I came up with would turn out, but boy I'm stoked on them now that they are starting to come to life.

    Another small update. I refined the handles on the choppers a little more, laid out the handle holes. One chopper will have a single guard made from 416ss plate and pins, and the smaller knife with a flat butt will get a threaded pommel from 416ss as well. The last two will be a first for me.

    Taking the dive into knife making

    I tried, remember my press only drops to 750rpm. At that speed, most of the oil just flies off. I think the wax lube will be a good option. It will work until I can get a new press. There are a few things I need to drill that need low low speeds.

    Taking the dive into knife making

    Thanks, drilling has been good so far. I was just saying it's more time consuming than I thought. I am using cobalt bits actually, got one of those monster sets from MSC a few months ago. I'll look into the M35 and M42. I used 3in1 oil for lube with good results to far. The problem with that...
