Hey Bob, I agree with Ironwolf. Camel bone that is about 2' long and ready to work can be bought on eBay for $25-$50. I bet you could trade it for about $100 worth of material though. Folks usually trade stuff they either have lots of that they got at good prices or they no longer value...

Hey Bob, I like sticking bone in my compost piles of cow manure. There's lots of bacterial activity. Can get some nice earthy stain action sometimes too. It does take a while though. If you haven't got months to wait, doing it another way might meet your needs better, or like you say...

What kind of foam is that and where do you source it? What do you mean by recesses? Thanks, Phil

Hey Mark, Sure, sure. Get us all excited about the sweet stuff, then tell us you're keeping it for yourself. You're one smooth peddler dude. Next thing you know we'll all be trying to outbid each other for the crumbs. Thanks for showing us the process. It is a GREAT help and always of...

That's good news. Does that mean there's no size or concealing restrictions? NH is a state that basically abhors government intrusion. After all, their state motto is, "Live Free or Die!" Wayne is right about the safety belts legislation. They really don't like to be meddled with. My Dad...

Hey Folks, The raffle forum shows almost all the threads are moved. Where to? I'm trying to track down a maker who raffled a knife as a fund raiser for Darci, but all those threads seemed to have been moved and aren't search-able any more?!? Thanks, Phil

Hey Folks, Where did all the auction threads get moved to? I'm trying to find the maker of the knife I won during a Darci fund raiser, but can't find the thread anymore. I can't even find any references via my user CP to any of my posts from back then in a number of raffles?!? Thanks, Phil

Great! I look forward to seeing that. I've long thought about that very thing after I saw some killer pens made from cob.

Ah man, now you've gone and ruined the ending...as well as let another of the secrets out!

If you're in a watching and waiting mode, you could set up a search for an anvil on eBay in the blacksmith category. Specifying for hits only within x number of miles of your zip code. You can have it email you when hits come up. You can do something similar in Craigslist, but manually or with...

"Looking for a good anvil...." ..........................................aren't we all? Kind of reminds me of a bumper sticker I used to see on the car belonging to a nurse that lived in the same neighborhood I used to. It said, "A hard man is good to find!" :eek: :unsure: huh1

Hey Guys, Looks to be good times for new direct drive grinders: the EERF grinder at BF and the BLG (Boss Lake Grinder :D) at KD! I may have missed it, or might not understand this quite right, but it looks like your using a "proprietary" method to attach the tool arm. That is, not like...

Even when I paste the URL in, this is what I get... Uh oh! No user ID was sent. Go back to Etsy.com I'm guessing you have a user id?

What's with the bum link???

Two questions... Has anyone tried Ultraseal? How do you beat the aprx 80 psi gasket limit on the paint pots folks make into vacuum and pressure chambers so you can get up to 125 psi? Thanks, Phil

Which drive did you get?

You betcha! 2thumbs

Wow. You carved out that dragon and ferrule weave in a day? And that was just one knife. You do a few of them in a day! Even in wax that's some doing! Will you share some of your secrets with us someday?!

It's also handy to search for their posts, as it is a quick way to their profile page and posting statistics. In the case of IG though I'm not sure there are many posts really worth looking for. He used to post pix of hot babes, but I guess they've all run him off as he doesn't do that much any...
