Well hell ! Now I gotta go make one of those !!...............

Jeremy; That is a cool concept, kinda like the one I saw on U Tube made by a Father Son team in Europe I bet we see a few more variations on the idea from like minded builders soon.................

For the price it would be great to have as trading stock for something more feasible to use if you don't have the power to run that one ..................

I like the second one more, and would suggest faceting the corners a little to assist the face profile some. Just my $.02 fer whut its worth, I wouldn't mind having one like that to try out...................

Inspiring piece of work Joel ....................

Don't know if I am qualified to do so but, I'll give a hearty second to that !!

Personally, I would invest in the press build, the kanka is fine for blade smithing IMHO.................

Owie !!! BTDT........

Looks like a good wet, and a good reason to stay inside usin that cool blade................

That will soon be yer favorite camp tool !! Nice job ...............

WOW !!! ...............

Rock on with it Rob !! I too smells the smoke ..............

I just binge watched the whole season myself The women had the most interesting weapons to me....................

Jeremy; Loctite thread locker is yer friend in this type of application..................

Well done ...............

Lookin good Will...................

I have a hobby foundry myself and as Jerrod said, there are variables to contend with and safety issues that are common sense, and subtle ones that can catch you off guard and really frig up your day or your life !! Study up on it and if you can, find a hobby melter close by who may show you the process.......................

That unit will do nicely for folder making , but the machine tool hobby is a deep rabbit hole.......... You also need to factor in the cost of tooling for it (ie) a mill vise, end mill cutters, drill bits, a hold down clamp set, and other specialty tools, like I said, deep .............. (Milling machine).........A device used to make tooling for lathes (Lathe)........A device used to make tooling for milling machines In other words you have to buy tools to make more tools to make stuff so you can buy more tools to make more stuff..............vicious circle it is. You will become another junkie like me and many others. There is a forum for people who suffer from this addiction called the hobbymachinist.com check it out..................................... My handle on that site is Norseman C.B., I welcome you to the madness !!

YUP !!!...................

BEAUTIFUL !!!!

Good on ya Rob !! Love it !!..................................

The Babe Ruth of blades swats yet another outta the park !!!!....................

An honor to a Father that words can not give....................
