Justin Topp Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 My brand new guillotine tool came in the mail today. Just gotta weld it up and than when I can get to the forge in a few days I’m gonna test it out. Just gonna make flat dies to start and I’ll get some steel and make other dies later. Planned on a fuller a butcher and a cutting die. Any others i should make? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Sort of depends on what you generally make....roping dies, lining dies for incised twists, fullering dies for bladework,...Dies for making fancy bolsters,.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swedefiddle Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Why be in a Hurry? Take your time and make it so you can be Proud of your Creations. One step forward, sometimes means two steps back. One careful step, sometimes means 4 step forward. There is no Stop Watch, nobody is timing you with a Calendar. Enjoy the Journey.
