    Homemade heat treat oven?

    Hey Shank, I've been watching your thread as I'm building an oven off the same plans. Getting ready to do the door which I'm not looking forward to! Quick question for those who have built a forge - Will adding a layer of 1" inswool between the brick and the housing add any benefit? How...

    110 ht oven

    Just a heads up, I was going to order my bricks online but they were $5ea + shipping - found a local harbison-walker and picked up a case (25 bricks) for $65... Definitely worth looking into whether or not you can get them local!

    should i jump on this kydex purchase?

    Thanks for your comment, Ed! I can definitely see why 1/8 is a little overkill (okay, a lot overkill). I actually formed my first kydex sheath last night with it. I have never owned a kydex sheath and haven't handled more than a couple (but I have dozens of pictures of sheaths I like) so...

    should i jump on this kydex purchase?

    Hey guys, I have a short window to buy some 1/8" kydex for about $4 per 9x12" sheet (i can also have him cut it larger, he has 15 4'x8' sheets he'll cut to any size). Should I jump on this? This is way more than I will EVER use, if this is a good price would anybody else be interested? At...

    The Newell .45 cal front loader

    This is coming along beautifully! Only 32 hours on the hammer? ;) Love your attention to detail and the little subtle things you do that really makes your work stand out. Little things like the scalloped edge on the hammer guard are just fantastic. Really glad you're letting us watch you and...

    The best carbon steel for the kitchen??

    I know some people who swear by A2, D2, 1095, etc for their kitchen knives - just like the "what's the best steel" question you'll get as many answers as there are opinions. I know you're looking for answers with opinions so you can see which sounds best to you. With that said, I like 1095...
