Blasted a Battle Saw

[clampdaddy]

Just got done bead blasting my buddy's Battle Saw. Gotta love the look of naked INFI. Man, I can't wait to run a Huck through the blasting cabinet!

That looks great, did you go over the handle too ?

Yep. If you strip the coating off first it doesn't take much. Especially the machined edges around the handle. Not really any decarb there. A few quick passes usually cleans it up good.

I really hope we see a BIG finish Battle Saw when O2W starts up again! :thumbup:

Just wondering, why do your pics show up so small?

Not a big fan of the saw teeth style,
but I gotta say, that looks nice.

Looks good.

I don't know. For some reason the uploaded here and my cell phone don't jive well with each other and when I import them from photobucket, they come out small like that.

Look pretty good best I can tell. But I can't help but want for a bigger pic.

Baah! Still no good.

The native image is tiny, even on Photobucket, so that's not going to help. Would need to reload it to your photobucket. You may have your upload settings set for a really small upload or something.

 

[Ulf Krogstad]

Yeah I'm not tech savvy enough to know either, was just hoping for closer look. Looking good though

 

[FloridaBlade]

Yep, it's a tiny photo to begin with.
Unfortunately, they don't grow when you post em.

 

[SpyderPhreak]

Photobucket has automatic re-sizing settings on each account. You can choose how big they upload, unless the native image is smaller than your settings.

Does the blasting operation remove the decarb layer ?

 

[SpyderPhreak]

It absolutely should, so long as the media is hard enough (most are).

 

[clampdaddy]

Yep. Takes it all the way off.
