Hello.
New on the forum and thought I'd say HI. Haven't made a knife yet, but am looking forward to the first. Waiting for grinder parts from USKM. Great folks to deal with. Going to build my own version of the NWG. Once I get the parts I'll get it designed. 4" x 1/4" wall sq. tube will the body and 1.5-2" for the arms. Looking forward to the designs and build. It will likely be welded for the most part but bolt together is nice if adjustments are needed. Been combing the web and youtube for everything on 2x72 grinders. Thanks to all that I've gotten so many good ideas from.
I'm a welder/artist. I do metal sculptures. A lot of bull kelp forms. I'm lucky to have a great shop to play in and room to spread out. I live in a rural wooded area outside the city with my wife and 2 Pitbulls and 2 Chihuahua's.
Look forward to learning more and more as I read through this site. Be prepared, the questions are going to be a comin'!!! :biggrin:
