Last w/e before the blade show. :eek:

Looking forward to putting some faces with the names.

I'll be staying off the roads and getting an order finished up. Might try to get something finished up for show-and-tell on Thursday night.

What ya'll got going on over the holiday w/e?
 
With a forcast of 3 days of rain I will likely get some work done. :grumpy: Think I'll get together with my kids and grandkids and cook up some chicken. My daughter in laws cat likes it when I come over to eat -- It seems like I somehow drop a lot of small tidbits -- guess I'm just a sloppy eater :D
 
Work Saturday, yardwork Sunday, and probably head to Lancaster on Monday.

I think I'll break down when I read next weeks Friday thread, I can't go :( :( :( .
 
Fri. assemble a little black pearl handled slipi. finish and assemble 2 others.
Sat and Sun at "the lake" at cousin's cottage with family...little fishing, lots of shooting the bull, a beer or 2 and great eats.
...then Mon and Tues finish up and final tuneup of all knives going to BLADE.
Wed pack and any last minute stuff to do.
Thurs Head Out to Hotlanta! HOT DOG its ONE WEEK FROM TODAY! My table is right next to Devin Thomas's...all that Damascus, so little time! :D
 
I finished the four knives I'm taking to Blade. I need to make sheathes for them. I start vacation Sat. :D I'll be off for a week and a half. We're going over to a friends Sunday for a Memorial Day w/e cookout. This friend works for Lockheed/Martin Marietta. He's a machinist/tool maker, he's going to supply me with worn out files and possibly a rockwell tester. He said they throw them away all the time. Remember our fallen heros this w/e Have a good one.

Trying just to get ready to work.Looks like I am loosing my Sat. and Monday so I'll try to get 2 blades heat treated and 2 more blades to final pre handle stages Sunday.
Monday Going to Grandfather Mt. Swinging bridge.

See you Friday Morning at the Hotel MArk. You taking your truck? Gray or blue?
You be up by 9 or 10? :D
 
Having a bachelor party tonight. About ten of my closest friends will be attending. Should be interesting -- with this group there's always the possibility of tattooing, jail time, or physical injury, and my old Marine buddies aren't even getting to make it!

But don't worry, I'll be safe fellows. Other than that, I'll be working on some knife orders and staying off the roads.
 
Hey B,

I get up at 4 am. Hard habit to break. We'll be in my Deb's green Bonneville.

You gonna have the skinner done for show and tell?
 
The Skinner is patiently waiting. Want to see a post Heat treat blade?
I need to get some 120 grit belts to thin the edge down some but you might like to check it out.....
I'll bring a few ;)
 
Out of town all weekend. Going on week #3 without touching steel to the grinder. :grumpy:
 
Today, run errands and pay bills, then shop time. Tomorrow, youngest son is having cookout on his birthday, then shop time. You lucky folks gong to Blade, have a fun and safe time!

Any good stripclubs? Make sure your friends don't tell your wife what happened, like my cousins friend did :rolleyes: .
 
We've got quite a few stripclubs, but not worth much. Pasties, expensive beer, etc. I'd rather just sit back, drink beer, and hang out with old friends.
