Desperados Waiting for a Train

[Redmeadow Knives]

If there was ever any doubt about my terrible sense of humor, here's proof.

The reason I dont mill the slot out is that I don't have an end mill small enough to match our steel thickness (.10") so I am drilling two .093" holes and cutting the slot with a jeweler's saw. The mill work is to relieve the backside so I don't have to fit the entire thickness. (Mack will read something dirty into that last sentence!). The slot is cut and fit to the individual tangs with a file. Then the face will be peened to fight tight, the surface polished, and then soldered on.

Blah blah blah, here knife makey picktures.

You can't imagine how handy this is. I would already be mismatching guards by know were it not for these boxes.

[Mack]

You know me all too well.

 

[SpyderPhreak]

Fitting guards.

Still nerding out on these boxes. They also let you guys know exactly where we're at.

That's the best part, you guys know exactly where your knife is at.

Lightning McQueen pulled into the pit with a broken spoiler, a little epoxy and he'll be chasing the cat again in no time.

Coolest thing Pixar, Disney or whoever they are ever did was to name the main character in the "Cars" franchise McQueen

He was one cool guy. Tom Horn was a great one.
