I use it from time to time and dislike it for the reasons Mr. Caffrey mentioned an more. It's itchy stuff even with long sleeves. That said I used to get it from black site carbon fiber. I'm not even sure they're still in business. I stocked up a little while back before I was even competent...

Thanks for the replies guys! April is still proving to be a bit of a pain. After I posted this thread I got a 2 week extension for the tac hawk and I ordered some fresh Cerakote from Brownell's. Almost a week went by and no product and no tracking info to my email, but the website said it...

Congrats!. I just recently made the switch myself from a Coote to direct drive VFD and the difference is night and day!

I've done that a few times. It's not fun. If you haven't used it I'd recommend the grind height calculator. http://bimjo.com/free/widget.html If you're grinding a blade and find you may exceed your projected grind height you can continue pushing the grind line up but will have to "feather" the...

I wanted to make a thread to vent my recent gremlins in the shop story (and my frustration) but I thought while I'm at I'd ask for your stories. Any story you'd like to share from gremlins breaking the shop to stuff constantly turning up missing. And for the person that makes me LOL the most...

Came out great! Love the design. And yes,the road to carbon fiber is an itchy one...

Yes with carbide bits or cut off disc on a rotary tool.

I mark my blades for line spacing and then bandsaw the cuts, and then lightly bandsaw the top edges of the cuts, and finally clean it up with a triangular file. I've been meaning to get a checkering file but I always seem to have order tooling needs that are priority.

Maybe we'll luck out and Boss Dog will make something better :D

I think it does go vertical. Links below. http://youtube.com/results?q=oregon%20knife%20maker&sm=3 http://youtube.com/results?search_query=oregon+knife+maker+grinder&sp=CAASAggA

That looks fantastic!

That came out great! That's a very functional and practical pattern. Congrats! If you don't mind me asking, what was the hardest part in completing it?

I have no experience with it but I was interested as well. There is one review on YouTube.

Greetings! I'm in Orange County. Good to have another Californian on board.

Thanks guys!

Haven't been able to work in the shop much this past year. Seems like every time I try to move up to full time status something comes up and bumps me down to hobbyist. Anyway, here's a new design I had a little while back and managed to finish. Worked on it while catching up on the few orders I...

That's fantastic!

I could have sworn Demko makes his customs using ti springs but I could be wrong.

Very nice! These blades you've been making are very impressive and inspiring.
