    Did Jesus visit the Americas?

    This is a very informative thread, but I must take a different position. I am a firm believer in God. I am not such a firm believer in ANY of the versions of the bible today. While each will give you an interpenetration of how one should live his life, each was written by a man (or group of...

List 10 persons names in alphabetical order in one column and the additional names in reverse alphabetical in the second column. For example, say we have 26 people. The...

    Holiday Gift Exchange

    I had an idea that it might be nice to have a holiday gift exchange of knife related products. Nothing expensive, just something that would be useful to ANY knifemakers. The maximum value of the gift to be $25.00 or less. A set of scales, a piece of known quality steel, guard material...that...

    Handle inlay, pantograph, possibly collaborative work?

    Use a technique from the jewelry industry. Measure the OD of the size you want the initials to be. Then find a core or hole drill that size. Measure the thickness of the side of the core drill.

    Jewelers saw recomendation

    I would not recommend the Knew Concept's jeweler's saw. It is extremely hard and time consuming to load the blades. While it is extremely light and strong, it is hard to use for piercing work due to the time it takes to load and unload the blades.

    What's your first name?

    Up until about 7 years ago I thought my name was Ted or Theodore. I had an occasion to get my actual birth certificate and found my real name is Teddy, not Ted or Theodore. So, I started using it.

    Storage ideas

    My total knife shop can fit in an 8 x 10 room, so space is at a premium. I made a lazy susan to hold belts from a flea market lazy susan and some pcv pipe. I sued the same technique to make a holder for my steel. Saves a lot of space. Teddy
