Ok will try, many thanks Pete

TBH. I think I would always buy )))

Yes your correct, fully stabilised, full tang with taper.

Timgunn , above are the images I couldn't upload in the PM......not sure how to do that. So is that unit any use for a tempering oven or useless as most likely one segment?

Here you go

Ok Chris will try to later as Im a bit 'stumped'....forgive the pun for ideas, well apart from maybe copper mosaics...does USA knifemaker do copper mosaics Tracey? Or failing that may be sloid bronze mosaics as I am fast going off solid brass pins.

I have been asked to handle a knife with some Jet black bog . So I cooked I first then stabilised it. The guy who sent if me is doing a collaboration with others and is sworn to secrecy as such but apparently a high end project. He is a leather worker and doing something for the project...

Wise words or buy cheap and buy twice. I remember when I served my plumbing apprenticeship in the 80's , good tools cost a fortune but these days there are lots of excellent tools for fait prices. You guys in the states really have it lucky as you have some fantastic equipment for knife making...

Very nice, lovely grinds.

WOW TIM...….thanks for the in depth reply, most of that has gone right over my head :-)) so I will have ti sit down and also send it to my father and pal who will be helping me with the builds. Really appreciate this. Cheers Pete

Only just saw this reply, I will look at what you advise as have been looking at other models today which were the Omega CN7500 which has 8 separate segments with 8 ramps and 8 soaks per segment and with a type K thermocouple is rated to 1300c I think they said, higher with other thermocouples...

Thanks Doug I will look him up.

lovely work as always.

My father was telling me he used to fit them on machine in a confectionary factory (Hall's Menthol sweets) as the machines need accurate switches to keep the liquid sweets (candy) at the perfect temperature along with the machines that had heaters for the wrappers......and the was 20 years ago...

I am sure some will correct me here but in simple terms its a switch which when used with a relay can control temperature, which in the case of HT ovens and tempering ovens needs to be accurate. It can make changes to temperature very quickly and accurately and also be programmed to do certain...

That's interesting to hear you did no rebuilding as my father was saying the same be it a HT kiln or tempering oven, the controls can be away from the unit if in a 'project box' Certainly saves the reworking of the toaster oven.

This might be of concern to some? I decided to check the accuracy of my main oven which is a Samsung, all singing all dancing which as a single guy I bought for my new kitchen I fitted. For the most part it is a nice piece of steel in the kitchen which my girlfriend cooks in when she visits...

Hi Doug Thanks for the answer, great advice as I would never use water for the reasons you state. When you say a high speed oil I take it that is an oil that kind of mimics water? If so can you give examples of such oils as will need to find one here in the UK. With regards to holding...
