Geoff Keyes Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Nice stuff. Do us a favor, though. Please re-size your pics to 800x600, it conserves bandwith, and loads faster for folks still using slower connections. Thanks for sharing your work. Geoff "The worst day smithing is better than the best day working for someone else." I said that. If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing badly. - - -G. K. Chesterton So, just for the record: the fact that it does work still should not be taken as definitive proof that you are not crazy.

Doug Lester Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Yep! That's real purdy. Makes ya want'ta go man the shield wall somewheres. Seriously, how thick is the blade and what do you think the head weighs in at? Doug Lester HELP...I'm a twenty year old trapped in the body of an old man!!!

mblades Posted January 14, 2011 Author Share Posted January 14, 2011 Sure not a problem , the head weighs about 2.5 pounds and just behind the edge bevel it was a heavy 3/16 to 7/32 , I will adjust my camera to see about making the photos smaller , or i may need to find a program to do so, Thanks, Mark Morrow's Blade and Blacksmith Shop http://www.swordsmith.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Scott Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I will adjust my camera to see about making the photos smaller , or i may need to find a program to do so, Thanks, Mark No need to adjust the camera. See this thread, post #2: http://www.bladesmithsforum.com/index.php?showtopic=14625&pid=175437&st=0entry175437 Quick and easy download, works very fast and it is FREE. The only caveat, Windows XP. Beyond XP, MS Office Picture Manager provides the ability to resize your photos.. just a tad bit more cumbersome but it works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
