Prayers on the way! Our best to your brother & your family.

Very nice! Great quality on the pics too. Really clear on the finish & details. I can't wait till I can get back to the forge!

Mitch

Elegant & beautiful. As always.

I have used them for smaller sized bending forks. I weld them to a piece of 3/4" square stock that fits in the hardy hole in my anvil.

Mitch

Looks great!

WOW......... that thing is huge! I wonder how far away you can feel the vibrations?

The rust shouldn't be a problem. But if it is in such bad shape, could there be any cracks?
How about using part of a thick rubber mat? No belts to worry about.

Looks great Frosty! I'm sure shw will love it.

Maybe a belt sander? I haven't worked with aluminum yet, so I'm not sure how it would do. I'm guessing ok. Mine works well for wood, steel & brass.

That is neat! Would make a great sign outside your smithy or when doing a demo somewhere.

Very nice! Wonderful details!

WOW! That is one of the sweetest knives I've seen. Excellent work! I am sure you will have no trouble finding a buyer for this knife.

Mitch

Sweet looking knives. I'm sure his father & step father will be very happy with them. Especially since he (and you) did it for them.

Mitch

I think a good used hardshell suitcase is your best bet. Pick one up at a thrift store so if/when it gets dinged up, it won't matter. You might line each half of the shell with foam and go with your other ideas like tieing things together & rolling them up. I have also used a strap around a suitcase, going thru the handle. Not a wratchet strap, just a regular type you pull to tighten. That way, if security does want/need to check things out, they can get in & out with out a problem. And the strap will help take some stress off the hinges & latches.
Good luck and let us know how thing go.

Mitch

Way to go Jayco! Glad to hear things are at a usable state. Now the real fun begins. Keep us posted!

Mitch

Thanks for the tip! I'll have to remember that. Now let's see.........I pass how many pawn shops on the way home?


Mitch

Looks great Finnr! Wonderful pattern. Can't wait to see the finished blade!

Very nice Richard! It turned out great!

Very cool! Nice design.

Mitch

Nice knife Highlander! Great idea using the high epoxy putty for a handle. Hadn't thought of that. Gonna have to try it sometime.


Mitch

Great looking roses! I'm gonna have to try these sometime. I'm sure your customer will love them.

Don't have any yet. Hope to soon. Still using gas.
By the way some of you are storing it ( by the ton(s) ), I better do it soon before it's gone! LOL

Karl, really superb work. I love the Maple handle! Gonna have to try & find some.


Mitch

Very nice! I am sure your sister will be very happy with it. :)

I think those who you showed it to, that weren't real impressed, are just jealous.

Great job.
