This is what's left of The Doom Of Silences used by Maxwell Smart

My Gus came down with bloat Christmas Eve and had to rush him to the emergency vet in Toledo Oh for surgery . This came on with no warning and he may need your prayers.

In , This type of gesture is why this is the best forum going.

Thanks Jeremy , its my first cable and it has quite a learning curve.

After a quick sanding and an etch I think it will come out ok , this is only sanded to 400 grit just wanted to see if it was worth the effort .

Here is a piece of the billet , I forged it out then cut it in half and placed a piece of 15N20 in the middle . Forged it out again and here we are , I can see some small inclusions but I am hopping they go away as I grind the blade , I am keeping in mind that this is a learning process, but...

This buck was taken in my back yard , I live on 10 acres . by my neighbor's son. The knife pix is the hunter I gave him a few years ago , it was from a spring I posted a pix of some time back.

I have been driving a 2004 F 150 for 16 years , its been a good truck but its time it goes over the rainbow. I picked up a 2019 Ram Big Horn today and love it. My wife thought it was funny that I had so many errands to run today.

That's a good idea , 15n20 would stand out nicely , I will have to think that over.

If the welds look good I am going to forge it out ,cut it in half and forge a piece of 1075 between the two half's. It will be a kind of Cable Damascus San Mai. LOL

I have wanted to try some cable damascus and a friend of mine ,who has a cable company, gave me a 6 Ft length of 1.5'' cable so here we go . I am trying a 6'' chunk first figuring I'd make my mistakes on it first . In the pix I have forged it out to 8'' and now I will cut it into pieces to see...

Opaul I have the same one on my work desk , use it all the time.

My layout table is about 30"x60" and weights in at around 1000 lbs when I go out to the shop I will get a pix. It came from our old machine shop , my son got ambitious one day. Used as a catch all at this time

Yes , vertical

This is the last item before the first weld , wanted it to be adjustable up and down and easy to swing out of the way . It will except up to a 3/4 '' rod .

That's what I thought as well , the Old Timer was in the worst shape . I had to do a little hand sanding but just enough . The Camillus is new the old protective oils had turned into varnish.

A friend of mine who I show Leonbergers with had some old folders that belonged to his dad . He wanted to give them to his adult sons but they were in bad shape so I told him to send them to me and I would do what I could. When I received them I took a look and thought what did I get myself into...

Well had to show off my hi-tech saw its about the same age as I am. Its from the Carolina Equipment Co. It converts to vertical but the old table was gone so I made one simple.

Thanks guys always the best info.

Does anyone running a blown forge have an idea of the flow rate for their needle valve , now I know it is related to pressure but its also related to the orifice size of the valve . I am having to open my needle all the way to achieve welding temp at 6 psi,
