Nothing much to see that many of you haven't seen already. I was playing around with iMovie on my phone, and I threw this together. It's a compilation of my work with some shop and WIP shots as well. Thought I'd share.

edit: Mike was kind enough to embed the video.

Take the video ID that's after the watch?v= in the URL and put it between [ youtube ] and [ /youtube ] but without the spaces

BTW cool video!
 
I really like the design of the knife at 4:10 with the black handles.


Oh, and your work areas are obnoxiously neat and clean.
 
Thanks, Fletch. That knife has been in use in the field, and the customer seems pleased. He told me the other day that it's heavy enough to take care of camp tasks, but balanced enough to use for more delicate work as well. It was a different design for me, as he wanted the blade loosely inspired by the Buck Model 119. I wasn't able to get many pics of it, and I didn't get pictures of the sheath (custom kydex with Tek-Lok).

As for my work area...well, lets just say it's a lot more crowded now, and a lot less clean. Since some of those pictures, I've added a new work table, a stand-alone drill press, a tapping station, a welder, and another work top. I hadn't been to the shop in a while, and when I finally got out there, it was both cleaner and dirtier than I remember :D.

Dang, that's cool Nathan!!!

You gonna come shake my hand in San Antonio this year??? :D

Oh yea, and wasn't some jack-ass supposed to TIG weld you a hardie, hardy, hardi tool????? :o :eek:

In all fairness, I don't have any more hardi stem sized stock and have just been too busy to forge/mill any down just yet Nathan. I WILL get to it, I promise :)
 
Nick, if at all possible, I'm going to shake your hand in San Antonio, maybe even buy you a meal. As always, it's going to depend on my work, but I really want to get down to SA this year since I wasn't able to last year.

Oh, and if I remember correctly, there WAS some guy that said he was working on something for me, but I never held much stock in it as this fella is well known for a certain un-finished WIP thread....:eek: ;) I need to dig that thread back up :D.

Nick, I really appreciate the thought, and no doubt it will be VERY handy to have. But don't break a leg trying to get it done. And like I've said multiple times, when you're finished, let me know how much I owe you.

If that's playing around you wouldn't want to get too serious! :eek:
Great video really shows a montage of your work! :thumbup:
