Welcome, Custom and Handmade folks. Many of you don't remember the old days of the EPIC WIP's by Bruce Bump, Nick Wheeler and others. Well, I'm going to try my best to re-create those days. I have a great collection of unobtainium- various parts from the USS Texas, a battleship that saw action in WW2 at Omaha Beach and Okinawa.

Here's my plan. I'm going to host this thread almost entirely in my maker sub-forum. I'll use this thread here to let you all know when I make updates, so you don't have to check my forum all the time unless you just want to lol.

Battleship Texas WIP

This is the beginning of what I hope will be my most epic knife to date. I suspect it'll take me 6 months minimum to get through the process. Given the complexity and the fact that I'm working with pure unobtainium, it seems like a good idea to record the WIP thread. Target is to finish in...

Lots of drama today. Fifth forge welding session coming tomorrow, likely.
