Hey Bruce, Why not give that serpentine a scorpion's tail and have it hook a lever on the primer box lid just as the match gets close? Just because I'm such an expert on these things. :lol: Roger

A Little Box Progress Here's a little more progress on Bruce's axe/gun case: I cut some 1 1/2" cubes of Cherry, mounted them on the lathe, and turned some feet. Then glued in some corner blocks to receive them...

Bump Box Boogie Here's some further progress on the box: I'm using box joints at the corners for strength because I'm guessing that this thing will be kind of heavy. Using a 1/4" dado blade, this fixture lets me adjust the width of the pins so that the joints slide together easily. After the...

Hello all of you Bruce Bump WIP followers. Bruce has invited me to add some woodwork to this thread. My name is Roger Treis and I've been building furniture and cabinetry full-time since 1994. About four years ago Bruce approached me about building a presentation case for one of his...

Another Beauty ! Just gorgeous, Bruce. If I get in line now, how many years before you can start on one for me?

Absolutely stunning, Bruce. I love your eye for design & detail. You really put a lot of work into that case since I saw it last. I'll bet you've got one elated customer who can't wait to get his hands on this one! I can't wait to see what's next, Roger T

Absolutely awesome, Bruce. Congratulations and thanks for sharing the photos!

Stunning! If you haven't peeked in at the progress on this one lately, you're in for a treat. These guys are creating a spectacular package! http://www.customknifecollectorsassociation.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=1002

Sharp!!! Very sweet looking folder, Bruce. Heck, looking at your price list, I'd gladly give you $6.00 for that one;) Seriously, what serial number are you up to with that little beauty? Roger T

Copper's House Now I see why you built that new shed. It's for when Copper grows up!

Follow-Up One aspect of the Knife Dogs Forum I especially appreciate is the family-friendly atmosphere. I can show friends and family the artistry and skills on display here without worry about coming across something unsavory. In the same spirit, I wanted to find a scrimshander with the same...

Wow - Wavy Walla-Walla walnut works wonderfully with bodacious Bruce Bump serendipitous serpentine steel! :biggrin: Roger

Scrimshaw Hey Bruce, I'm still feeling guilty about taking advantage of the "discount" you offered, we may have to re-negotiate. ;) Regarding scrimshaw, I'd like to do something that doesn't detract from the overall graceful design and the skill that have gone into this knife. Perhaps...

Here's 2 cents worth regarding hardware for small boxes: The hinges used on this box are made by Brusso; they are milled from solid stock and hold the lid open at about 95 degrees. Now they're available in stainless steel, too. Lee Valley is one source for these. Good quality brass hinges...

OOH - Really looking forward to seeing this set all assembled. Did you get the hammer-spring sorted out? Roger

Howdy Bruce, You're welcome to look through my stock of curly black walnut. Roger

2thumbs AWESOME!!!

Here's an elegant little kitchen knife Bruce just completed. As you'd expect, even in it's simplicity, all the details are perfect. From the graceful curve of the 4 3/4" blade to the taper in the tang through the Koa wood handle, the fit and finish are flawless. Thanks, Bruce, for putting...

Sweeeet! Ooh! I'm grinning and drooling at the same time.:D I'll have to fight the temptation to camp out there and watch for it to be built. Roger

WOW what a sweet looking pattern. I just got back to town and had to catch-up with the latest episodes on channel "Bruce". Now, if only a scrap of that billet could fall into the middle of my "slippie"... ;) Thanks Bruce! Roger
