    IKBS bearings best placed in frame lock folder blade or frames?

    In a (3" blade) frame lock, where do you put your bearings, in the blade or in the frames? Blade = thinner blade, but it gets heat treated. Frame = counterbore hole in non HT Ti, but thicker blade. Thanks.

    Frank Niro knife grinding jig: request for photos if you made one.

    Thanks for answering Frank. I think I can picture how the jig is working when grinding, but I'm still lost as to how the guide rod helps establish a proper starting "rough" angle, and what its purpose is durring grinding. Thanks.

    IKBS or Micro Roller Bearings?

    My hope is that someone using these two systems can comment on which is the most trouble free, easiest to clean, strongest, least prone to side play, smoothest, and, maybe least important, easiest to build into the knife. Thanks

    What is this part called and how do you cut it out?

    I was frustrated when I found the cost of a rotary table, so thanks!!! I found your post with photos of your jig here: http://knifedogs.com/showthread.php?2720-WIP...a-new-quot-Flipper-quot My search skills on this site suck, so I've been going through all the posts with the word flipper in...

    What is this part called and how do you cut it out?

    Found it!!! If I get a rotary table for the mill, I can cut the curved slot. (or as suggested, I can drill it out and grind with a flex shaft). So am I right so far? Do I NEED the curved hidden stop for a flipper? Any rule as to where to draw that curve in relation to the pivot & bearings?

    What is this part called and how do you cut it out?

    OK slowly it is making sense. I lay it out by positioning the knife blade in the open position, marking that point where a stop is needed; closing the blade, and marking that stop point. Then drawing a curve between the two for the curved slot. Any rule as to where to draw that curve in...

    What is this part called and how do you cut it out?

    Maybe I found the answer to why use a hidden stop pin: Now, if that''s why, it looks like it is needed for a flipper. So...How do you mill it, and what is the best way to lay it out? Thanks.

    What is this part called and how do you cut it out?

    I have a manual miniature mill/lathe, (Sherline). I'm very new to using it. How do you mill a partial circle? What is the best way to lay out the placement and length of the semi-circle? Is there a tutorial or post on this? What are the advantages to a hidden stop?
