Thanks Mike, I will let her know about Worthers. I will have to research them to find out where to call but if she has not already sold it that would be a great option. I appreciate you letting me know about it. Bob

Hey guys, I hope all that are having problems right now get them all cleared up and do not have any ongoing issues and that everyone lives a good long time. I do have a question for you guys and the guys luckily enough to still be completely healthy. I know some people here have day...

I want to see it next time you come to my shop.

Nice knife.

I have looked around a lot here and find very few lockbacks. Why do so few people make them? When I started investigating making folders everyone said that liner locks are easier to make; Is that the reason so few make lock backs? I prefer lock backs in general and wonder if others just...

Fred, I just saw the email from paypal come in. I appreciate you helping her out. You guys are the greatest.

I don't know Tracey, but I can ask her. She does not do anything on the computer so photos and all that are not possible unless I drive down there and take them myself. Bob

Thanks Wade, I am going to really like sending her this cash. She will be happy and since it is unexpected it will be pennies from heaven to her. Thanks to all that have donated and all that may still donate. Bob

SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD Well guys Gracie sold the shop. Someone in Pittsburgh bought it but I don't know who it was. I will wait about another week for any more...

Thanks for the donation and the vote of confidence Wayne. We are gathering a decent little check for her. Nothing spectacular but a decent amount anyway. Just so everyone knows there have been a few people that have offered for me to take part of their donation for gas but I am not going to do...

I can confirm the dense part. OOPS!!! Did I really type that?

As of now there has not been anyone offering to buy the entire lot. This is unfortunate because she really needs to get this sold and the longer the wait the more likely it will be difficult to sell. There was one person very interested but I think he backed out due to his inability to get the...

Interesting to know some of this stuff. WOW, could you imagine the power stored in a piano. It does not look like there is that much stored energy just sitting there under tension for all those years.

To the people donating money for Gracie. I can tell you that although he is no longer here, Bob Blasingame would be very proud and humbled to have you sending your cash to help out his wife. When I was at Gracie's home she kept telling me that she could not believe I would drive over a...

Keith, Gracie will appreciate your help.

Steve, the ones I have see are placed into the liner with the horizontal tail in a slot on the liner and the vertical part going into a hole in the blade. To load the spring you put the blade onto the spring and turn it until it is in place and then put it on the pivot and put the lock in...

Andy, it all helps man. It adds up and she can use whatever we can get for her. She will have to pay someone to make the repairs so it will cost her a bit more than if Bob was still around. It is times like these I wish I had a bunch of cash so I could buy the shop and send some people over...

Randy, Even at that distance it would be worth the trip in my opinion. Murph, Pooling would be a good idea but a hassle if everyone was far apart. I really wish I had the cash, I would sell what I did not need and keep the stuff I did. You could probably make some money that way.

Charlie, Glad you had a good time. It is fun to see the light bulb come on over your head. Burning the hair off your arm or watching you pick up something hot is kinda fun too. Bob

Went to see Gracie today. Very nice lady. Below are a LOT of photos. I kind of jumped around just a bit but everyone should be able to follow the photos. Gracie and I have a little different opinion on what a LOT is. The hand tools, wrenches and such are not as much as I thought there...
