The phone book one was my favorite! Nice job!

Thanks John!

Just finished this custom Sparrow up

Look amazing! What did you learn this go around?

Nice work! Love the file work you did... And is that a custom mosaic pin?

I always recommend a spyderco sharpmaker for maintenance in between sharpening to my customers. If the edge angles are set up properly by a pro you can maintain a good long time this way.

Well we know who is an introvert lol! I'm the same way haha. Nice wip build! Thanks for sharing!

That's crazy! I keep my shop at 70-72 all year although when I come in sometimes it's in the low 60's (on a really cold night) until I get all the lights and equipment on. But it heats up pretty quick to a comfortable temp. Don't know how some of you guys without heating & cooling do it!

Yeah better make sure pipe heaters are working! Don't wanna have to fix a waterline in that weather!

That's interesting... I've had z axis on mine from day 1 and literally never used it. Part of the reason is that it's too slow to raise and lower the entire head manually all the time (I mill Ti a lot and don't want it to sit there rubbing while I raise the head). Also when the head isn't locked...

I second this... You really only need x and y axis too, as long as the quill has one for the z.

I've been I really happy with my Matthew's... I got the 727-v. One of my scales for the DRO needs replacing after about 3 years but that's it.

Put my reeder sga to good use today

Anyone tried the rhynalox white line sandpaper? I notice some suppliers are carrying it now and it's a lot cheaper than redline... Edit: Looks like the white line is only up to 120 grit but I'm still curious on the difference :)

It was another alternative to Bladeforums but they had subsections for other topics than just knives. But a lot of big name knife makers were over there like Tom mayo and Ken onion. But it kinda died out over the past few years imho

If it was laser cut then there is a heat affected zone that is much harder than the annealed steel... Try grinding away 1/16-1/8" then cutting, also, don't feed too hard into your bandsaw. And I assume you're using slow speed one (portaband?)

Wow that voodoo resins place is cool!

I'll take em, pm inbound!

Great to have you here!

I eyeball it and then use my mill to make them really flat... It's sorta time consuming lol
