1st slipjoint

[jvholt]

Herer is my firts attempt at a slipjoint.The parts were cut out at GreatLakes Water jet. I had really hoped that it would have turned out a little better than it did, but I learned alot. I Made some mistakes that I tried to fix along the way, but now I got a new knife. I'm pretty anxious to try another one.

Not bad for a first! You learned alot, thats the best part! Every GREAT maker had to start somewhere, and I'm sure we would all like to see some of their "firsts"...

Looks good to me for a first try! Probably a little more rounding off the corners on the bolsters would really improve it's look and feel.
Thumbs up in my book though!

Looks good, but a photo taken directly from the side would show it off better.
