Figured I would just start a thread saying hi from my bed/couch. Had knee surgery to clean up some damage. Nothing serious but to relieve some pain. Bored out of my mind and surfing the knife dogs looking at awesomeness. That is all... Brian

Thanks! Your right it just pops. I wish I had another set of scales like them....

This knife has some of the best wood that I have worked with to date. O-1 Blade. Stabilized Box Elder Burl

Ah! There wasn't anything special about it. I just asked Kevin if he could give me a definitive answer on my process. I can see where he is going. He wants the correct info out there, and not just say yes it could work or no it wont. There are just so many variables to deal with that there...

Aye!

You guys make good suggestions. I didn't cross my mind about the reverse switch. Wayne, how much are your setups?

Thanks guys. My problem has become finding the right materials. I know Nick Wheeler used Schedule 80 pipe. But when I go in to try and find pipe and a wide flange or I-beam, I can't. I went to the junk yards, and I went to the metal distributor in town and the didn't have pipe that would fit...

Sweet

So I hace been thinking about making a 9" disk grinder. What type of rpms are appropriate for this? I have a 1/2 HP 1725rpm motor and a 1/2 HP 3400rpm, that can be used for this.

Reasonable offers will be considered.
