    Wiring Help

    Just gonna take a shot in the dark and guess the red is the low speed wire. Really simply, white is neutral, black is high, red is low. Wire the black and white wires to your cord, green to the motor frame ground, and wire nut and tape the red.

    What's going on in your shop?

    So I found out that I must be living right today. I had the female half of a corby bolt sand through. It was drilled a bit extra deep and I set it a bit shallow. So it popped through a hole. If I ever thought this was gonna work, I woulda took pics of the hole process. Short version is, I was...

    More Money Than Sense.

    I looked through the AKI gallery. This is the OP knife. It's so clean, I could be convinced this is a rendering, and not a photograph. That is art.

    Why I've not made many knives lately

    That kind of stuff is fun. But I feel like a heretic if I use anything but an iron sighted 22 and head shots. One must hone their skills somehow.

    Why I've not made many knives lately

    These are old enough. Dumplin's is a good plan.

    1075 quench

    Every knife maker on every form of social media that answers the oil question always says "buy proper quench oil" does so because they regret having wasted time, effort, and money on the other stuff. So instead of wasting the time and materials on even a couple of knives and substandard...

    2x72 36 Grit belts

    Another big plus is you never have big deep phantom scratches showing up later. I do keep a couple 36 grit AO for hogging wood or micarta. That's really the only thing they're good for IMO.

    2x72 36 Grit belts

    Unless you have a specific use for a 36 grit belt, I'd suggest giving the 50 grit blaze a try for coarse stock removal.

    Fake Scammer Instagram Sites

    So if you have a paid service to offer, why not just post that, and include a link and a description, instead of plugging in a link to an otherwise innocuous comment?

    2x72 36 Grit belts

    I'd guess they're more costly to make.

    karma...

    It's like watching a dog on a piece of hide pulling with all his might, not concerned about what happens when it gives... So is my thinking when I see someone trying to cram a knife in a sheath hard enough to cut through it. Uh...ya realize ya hand wrapped around that, dontcha?

    Air compressor help

    Well, I'll add if it doesn't make more and more every time you drain it, I wouldn't worry about it. If it increases, there might be an issue.

    Air compressor help

    Could be leak developer or something like that. I wouldn't worry about honestly. If you're airbrushing or something like that, throw an inline filter on it.
