    Hot Shot or Evenheat which one

    I have a Knife Dawgs oven from Paragon and am very happy with it. It's a little more affordable but only 14" deep. Good enough for 95% of my work.

    Question on attaching extension to tang

    You can notch the end of the threaded rod and solder it to the end of your tang. I see no reason why this wouldn't work.

    First slip joint

    Nice job for a first try. I tried a kit knife and that was a disaster. I guess I will stick with liner locks.

    The other option is a low temperature silver solder. that way you can extend it however you wish. My personal preferance would be a threaded extension.

    old age

    Just turned 65. I don't recover/heal as fast as I used to. After 25+ years of working in maintenance I am still doing pretty good. The thin skin sucks. Fortunately, no other serious ailments as yet. It is better than the alternative. Grind on y'all.
