    Trouble cutting micarta

    I mention this as I catch myself forgetting it, but lower the top guide down as close as it will go. I almost always forget. :)

    Kamisori Scrap Never Give Up

    I love the look of this!!!! Very futurist/ industrial. This is the razor Deckard would shave with!

    Japanese Style Straight Razor ??

    No hi-jack intended but, how does a curved blade like that shave? I'd think it be horrible, but obviously that's not the case. Never seen one like that.

    stand alone Grinder topic

    I was thinking just a general, all in compassing section for ease of creation for the admins. But yeah, could have sub-sections too.

    stand alone Grinder topic

    Thanks for chiming in everyone! I agree maybe "Grinders" is too wide a title. I think "Belt Grinders and Accessories" might be the better title. Doesn't represent a majority of folks on here, but it's a start! Hopefully an Admin. will see this and discuss it with those in charge. The more...

    stand alone Grinder topic

    Thought I posted this question/suggestion already but can't find where I did...so Any chance there's enough interest in having a stand alone "grinder" topic? Seams like most use them and I thought it be nice to have info all in one place. WIP's, fixture suggestions and ideas, belt revues...

    Made myself a Magnetic knife rack

    That's brilliant! Would look nice having a set of knives with handles matching the holder.

    Suggestions for a mini-mill

    Good info Pandaman. Nice to here from those with experience like you. I'm still going with the King as Grizzly is in the States and it just not economical to bring one up here. So much for "free" trade. :34:

    Lucky Day

    Sad isn't it. $127/month for my wife and I for Provincial health care, is well worth it twice over when I think of all my stitches, x-rays, specialists, broken bones...... Makes me shutter to think what hole I'd be in if I wasn't in Canada. Funny the insurers don't tell the hospitals and...

    Sourcing cable for Damascus

    That's good thinking, Mike. A"gift" for the help always goes a long way. I always go around at Xmas to my suppliers with "gifts" in brown paper bags. :thumbup1:

    Lucky Day

    Glad you got taken care of. For a million bucks, you'd think you have a whole new chassis and drive train!:lol: Hope you got insurance of some sort. I'd like to see everyone get a full MIR, tip to tail, when you hit 30-40. Give a base line for future reference. Don't you hate when the doc's...

    This is what a "bad" day looks like!

    Food for thought when buying a vice: It really is a straight forward device. It's clamps and holds stuff. You can spend a mint on a name brand one that will, likely never crap out or just grap a cheapy from Harb Frate and just toss IF it breaks. They are cheap and for the most part work the...

    My firstwebsite is up. Looking for feed back.

    I'm all for doggie pic's, just not in the initial "Hi, this is me" shot. :3: Nice job though given it's DIY. The diy kits/ sites have come a long way from the days of looking like Gov't DOS documents. I ran into a few makers sites that have the text obscured by the images. Kinda tough to make a...

    False Neo-Tribal vs. True Neo-Tribal

    Thanks for taking the time to write that, One, really good info. It kinda jives with what I had perceived, from a simplistic visual point of view, as the melding of modern knowledge and "old" methods of making and decorating, if you will. Makes me wonder if the Steam Punk genre hasn't taken...
