    First forge build; I'm gonna need help.

    I like my forge allot. Let me know if I can add to your thread here. The burner has a flair on one end but the flaired end isn't in the fire, it is at the cold end and is made to funnel and speed up air flow much like a Venturi type burner. The blown forge needs just a bit of back pressure at...

    Should I buy an Atlas Mini Forge?

    Bob, Thanks for the mention of my forge. I use mine allot and love it. I've made and sold 5 of them for over $700. I don't plan to make any more but while I was making mine I made several extra parts to make more. If you want to save some time on yours give me a shout. You can use a propane...

    History Channel....Forged in Fire

    We don't have cable but the next night we got to watch it. I liked it but can tell the promoters wanted some action. I've never in my life made a knife in 3 hours and if I did it wouldnt look any better than those bowies. The fact they were told to use water as a quenchant should have clued us...

    Tendonitis and knife making ?

    Frank, was it carpel tunnel syndrome surgery? I'm have more trouble with the tops of my wrists. The carpel surgeries I've seen are done on the underside not on top

    Marquenching and drawing back the hardness in the spine questions

    Your warped blades could be a couple things. there is no need to move the blade around in the oil. that right there may add the chances of warping. The other thing is you probably have stress in the steel before you put it in the oven. You should do a stress relief cycle. I use 980f for 30 mins...

    Snakeskin handle challenge .... CRUSHED!

    Me neither. A first. I like it and can appreciate the time that took to get "right" I could see a really cool sword cane next or at least a rattler covered walking stick.

    Arthritis anyone??

He claims it works very well and will restore the area where arthritis exists. Anybody have experience with stem cell therapy? My doctor suggests...

    I'm teaching a Seminar on "Cut N Shoots" need ideas

    I've been talking with Dan Cassidy about the presentation. He is going to take all my photos and videos on this build and put them together into a single power point slide show. Im thinking there may be over 200 shots for him to go through and edit. Here is just a sampling of some of those...
