i went over to Grat Lakes Water Jet and he helped me. there are guys who make folders with just a dremel....... special equipment makes it alot easier, but it can be done without.........
all i have is a grinder, drill presses, and a bandsaw........
I've been told I can make them even with just my equipment. (I don't even have a drill press) It's just not that practical without access to the larger equipment though.
