Congrats Randy, I'll be proud to build a few of those. Jerry

Thanks for answering Rex, I had given up and was going to post the question on blade forum. Anyway, the clay stuck like glue,I soaked @ 1480 for 5 min. I polished out with Never Dull. Great hamon on bevels' just stopped abruptly at the plunge line. Been useing a lot of 1095-1084-80&75/80 and...

Knifemaker, I have real good luck with Admerial's 1075/1080. Useing M-C 11 sec oil with santinite clay. Jerry

OK somebody, tell me something-- I always take the hamon across the recasso and under the handle but this time the hamon stopped at the plung and nothing on the recasso at all. useing Aldo's 1/8" w2, santanite,MC 11 oil. Please tell me your thoughts, Jerry I had the clay going back...

Hay Guys, Got to looking and I sure am glad that I have a design in the mix. If not, I would have a real hard time voting. There are several great designs here and I wouldn't mind stamping my name on any of them.[and I am picky] Randy, Denny, Ausbrooks, Franklin#2,Justin #2 and...

Hay Pet'wood-- Boss & Ed told you like it is. It is not the commonly accepted way but makes a good blade. Jerry

No Murph,ain't NO life before coffee. Sometimes I break me off a piece of yesterday's cold coffee 'till the good stuff gets ready, and MAN, sometimes that stuff is hard to chew up. Maybe that is why I designed such a hard knife to build. I made that design yesterday and it took me ALL day long...

Alright Bill, where is yours? Probably put us all to shame. Jerry BTW thanks for posting for me.

Thanks Murph, that was before coffee one morning

I'm only 65 So I really would like to enlist--------again---. Can ya run um wit dawgs b'fore you shoot um?

sorry, I got excited and double barrel posted

I thank Doug said it. I would start over as if nothing had happened. Jerry

Bill, I'm so confused, I don't know what is going on & I'm too dumb to figure it out. Now do I take my blank steel, profile the knife, grind & drill, heat treat, & finish or is someone else going to profile & heat treat? Now you know me, I would rather have a pattern & do it myself. That way I...

I didn't think anybody but me had that problem. I might go through 150-200 sets of [potential, because most have not been ripped up yet] scales.

I don't know what your etching in but I would say that you are etching too long. I use feric acid from Radio Shack--Full strength-I go in for 20sec- out, wash in water, dry, spray with windex dry, polish with Never Dull. If it is not enough pop, I wipe good with alcohol and repeat [one time]...

Tom, I sometimes get 1/2" scales off E-Bay. I glue {with 2 drops of super glue}the scales to a 3/4" board end to end and run them through the planer. Just take off small passes and never had any problems. Jerry

Where are you going Murph?

Hay fellows , It was the switch,$3.60, Maybe I should get an extra to keep on hand. I really hate to be completely shut down.

Andrew, I never thought of that, but I don't have a tester anyway soooo. I called Grizzly and ordered the switch and the capacitor. The order was $26.70 delivered to south Ms. This way I should have a spare part or 2 Thanks for the help--Jerry

Yeah Randy, I will call but I think all I need is the switch and the capacitor. Thanks a heap, Jerry
