  1. So yesterday at work I found some pieces of metal in the scrap bin. They are 2" x 4" x 1/2". I was wondering if y'all had any idea what I could use em for? They are a mild steel. Could they be used for axes or hawks as long as I add a bit for the edge? Any other ideas?
  2. Frosty the clamps that were on it were overheating but got a new clamp today gonna try to fix it tomorrow
  3. I only have about a 1/2" hole... Guess i have some work to do this weekend Making a slit punch. I have to find something to make it out of first :P
  4. Dc how's that drift work for you? I have one coming in today. Any tips?
  5. Nice job! I did a different sheath and found that the applicators streak horribly as well. I'll use this method next time! Thanks those look great!
  6. I have a 110 , 100amp stick welder. It has a bad ground clamp. I've done replaces the electrode holder. Could I use a standard c- clamp? Or do I need to buy a proper clamp?
  7. I would like to see the plans! I need to make an anvil stand.
  8. '> First file knife and sheath I made. Can I get some advice on staining the leather? thanks guys!
  9. what type of steel can you use? and would bolts work ? Grade 8 bolts? or what kind? Do you have pictures? I'd like to see these.
  10. Thanks I'll have to get one of those
  11. Had my fire brick forge setting up on bricks on a stump. Locked up shop. Stump caught fire and burnt the center out of it luckily the stump was the only victim and the fact that my shop smells like smoke. '> '> Lesson learned.
  12. What finish do you use for utensils.
  13. Please be aware that when you turn off your forge it's still HOT. Nearly burnt down my shop yesterday.
  14. Might give this a try this weekend on a small scale. Thanks for sharing!
