Ahh sweet Friday again,

Gotta go to the doc today and see if I've got another disc going kaplooie in my lower back. God I hate getting older.

Gonna try like heck to get finished up on a project or two and start on a gift for my Mom.

What are the rest of the unwashed masses doing this w/e.?

I hope I DON'T spend all weekend looking for my leather tools. I put them all away after the last sheath:grumpy: I spent about 2 hrs looking last night.
Made this real nice looking hunting / skinning knife for my friends daughter to give to her boy friend for Christmas. I get the feeling I am running out of time:eek:
 
Just getting in from work... Friday starts later for me...
Good luck with the back, Master Mark.
 
:D Going to KS for the inlaws side of Christmas. Wonderfull folks, food and oh yeah Dominoes.

Hey MArk I got super glue and one of those big needles we use on the livestock..... reckon I could glue you together.... maybe try the duck tape first, though.
 
WOOHOO!!!!
It's coming together even more! I've got O1 scheduled to arrive today, I've got my steel cabe and wire, I've got my mokume ready for welding, I've got my chisels, punches, and cutters as well, I've got some more rebar, and today I pick up my soft firebrick. Oh yah, my entire forge gets yellow at about 5psi now!
This weekend I visit the Saxet Gunshow, then weld up my C-Clamp tongs and make myself a special vice.

Yeah I reckon the collective wisdom and resourcefulness of all us knifemakers, we oughta be able to fix up Mark as good as new! Right now I am thinking I could design and machine a jig to keep his spine in perfect alignment while your superglue dries. Maybe we can get someone to make him a couple Timascus pucks to replace the bad ones...

Yeah, we can DO this! :thumbup:
 
Heat treating today and tomorrow. Saturday, is the first day of late muzzleloader season. We're going out to try our luck again. This year has really sucked as far as even seeing a deer.:grumpy: I'll be catching up on orders.

I'm going to be working on some hand-rubbing and grinding on on some G-10 -- woohooo! :D Also, I'm going to see if I can't make Nick Wheeler's world fall over. :D
 
I talked to an old Chiro practer once. He said if he could get in it there he figured it would work. Showed me an article on a guy in Nam they glued his liver together. The soldier lived. :D

They've all been road burger on I83 Scott!

Another weekend of working around the house getting ready for a party on Xmas :mad: :grumpy: . At least we get to see the family. Hopefully no accidents like last weekend.
 
Hope you're healing up there Mark-
I'm pulling 2 bar shifts this weekend (like every weekend).
No fun for me.
 
I'm gonna be working my ass off all weekend,got tonnes and tonnes of schoolwork to do (art) to hand in my whole project on monday, I'm never gonna get it all finished :(

Gotta do a whole A1 painting, and fill up half an A1 sketchbook... :yawn:
 
Yesterday was my 27Th birtday so tonight my GF is throwing me a Mardi Gras party complete with beads, grenades, overly strong drinks, and lots of mayham....I am psyched!

Got a nice sirius radio for my Bday...set that up last night....

Have an order to complete by the new year, a carving set to finish and box for xmas, a damascus letter opener to attach scales to, a small damascus fixed blade for my grandfater and sheath to finish...

Plus i have a 1/4"X2"X36" bar arriving of O-1 steel that will be made into my competition cutter....gonna have full size dimensions, convex edge, differential tempering, and some kind of funky g10 handles made to be bruised and abused....
 
Gonna grind the walnuts
............. roll the dough.
Baking weekend
............. here at home.

Its already worth it....the diversity of the music is enough for me....i heard guns n roses "estranged" today....thats not something you;d ever hear on radio!.....I have it in my car....never will run out of stations on long trips...then i go to work, log in, and stream all the music/talk all day long to my computer, then its in my car on the way home, and in my radio at home....So far, its pretty rockin'
 
I'm not a big fan of Stern, but I am a big fan of his Wack Packers, like Beetlejuice, Gary and Jeff the Drunk. Out of Howards show, I like Artie and Sal (I know, I know, he's funny). Does Sirius have a blues channel?
 
Some shop time today before the kids get home from school.
Self defense class tonight...
Let's see if anyone will whip-up on this 50 year old man on his birthday.
Supposed to go Christmas shopping with the wife tomorrow. Maybe more shop time Sunday
 
Sign out on leave tomorrow, off until 3 January! It's nice being an instructor now, the schoolhouse pretty much shuts down this time of year. Going to my daughter's Christmas Party at school today, then tomorrow playing catch up on the custom order I screwed up. I foresee more family time than knife time this weekend.
