kevin (the professor) Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 (edited) Hello Everyone, this is a set of pics from my new shop and of the first knife I have made since moving into it. I have been busy building things for the shop since we bought our first home, and now I have to catch up with making knives.You will also see my new Grizzly grinder in the pics. It is an amazing step up from the Delta 1/4hp I was using. quiet and smooth, too. But, I still use the Delta for handles, smaller belt width and slower speed. Knife: welded cable about 11.5" blade 16" oal bird's eye maple, leather spacer, and nickel silver fittings I am going to weld more cable soon. It is great to see patter up close. thanks for looking, Kevin Edited August 14, 2009 by kevin (the professor) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markb Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Those benches are TOO clean, get busy:D The knife looks great but you need to work on your photos so we can really appreciate your work, i'd like to see that pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin (the professor) Posted August 16, 2009 Author Share Posted August 16, 2009 Thanks, Yeah, they will collect a deep layer of grit, sawdust, oil, and a little blood over the coming years. I apologize that I need to learn to take better photos. I am really lousy with cameras. Esp. digital ones. I understand the old fashioned kind better. thanks for looking, kc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPH Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Kevin: I had the same problem with photos..believe me I ain't no sort of photographer but ever since i got a Sony H20...man the pics I am able to take are light years ahead of wehat I was taking before... The H20 isn't all that much $$$ ..not when you see all that it does and boy it makes even my photos look decent... Just a suggestion..if you can afford the tarriff on it..go for it...
