No worries bubba, you are joining an elite group called "Man." Ok, it isn't so elite but yeah. We all have those days some will take the day and get drunk at 8am, some will grin and bear it, some will go to a shooting range and blow off steam, some will go crazy and climb a bell tower and shoot 16 people at university. I suggest the grin and bear it method and just remember that was yesterday. What happened yesterday is done and it will have no impact on what happens tomorrow. Unless of course you do something like the bell tower scenario, that will affect tomorrow.

I dunno about MORE of them but they certainly happen. It's actually been scientifically proven that men do get hormonal shifts in their systems monthly. I wouldn't call it PMS but for lack of a better term it does cover it.

So, we figured out why I can't sleep... I always wondered! Thanks! :D
And yeah, sometimes putting yourself through a little extra hell to help a friend balances out in the end.

Is the truck shop something you can make enough at that you can quit the job you hate? That would be kind of an ideal situation right? Working with a friend doing something you're good at, and not at a place you hate with people you like.




No, you're not allowed to work that hard! It takes me forever already to get your knives!




Working for my buddy as a full time frabricator would be something we would both definately love. Hes tried to get me to work for him full time for years. And yes, you are correct Cbear. I hate my job with a bleeding passion. so bad infact, it sometimes effects me negatively in other aspects of my life, and that no good for anybody. However, It just not that simple. Insurance comes into play. 401 comes into play, job security, and the fact that I get a bounus every year in March. If I quite 1 day before I get it the company keeps it. Its several thousand dollars so I would be dumb to leave before that. Its definately a possibility but sometimes mixing business and friendship isnt a good thing, and that scares me a little. but, I am thinking harder and harder about it, and my buddy told me the other day that he was going to write up a proposal for me, so, hes thinking about it a lot more seriously too. I just figure in the meantime I'll help him out as much as I can and we'll see where it goes from there. God knows I sure would love to tell them to piss up a rope here! :D
 


He's having an argument over this... I told him I didn't know who he was until he pm'd me.

I don't know JD... looks like the both of you ripped off Clovis Man...

:D Sorry the guy is harassing you, but I don't think you have anything to worry about, just ignore his attention seeking ploy...lol.

Yeah, I quit my last job the week following the payout of my annual 'tip'. That was an expensive two months of work for my old firm. :)

*LOL*
710, tell the guy HE ripped off a caveman!
 
Sweet. Look forward to seeing it.

It's not real dramatic, but I ground it down to the line I drew. I'm also going to put a slight swedge on it, and that's the part that I'm concerned about getting to look right.

I hope to see a thread on it soon. :cool:
 
holy smokes this guy won't quit!!

JD, just block, ignore, spam filter, whatever, the dude and forget it. I wouldn't waste on e more second on the pile of monkey flop. Only time I would even revisit the matter is when he ponied up for an attorney. I've had some experience with this stuff. Anyone looking at the two blades can tell the similarities, however slight, are coincidental at best. Anyone that would take issue or think he is right would not be worth having as a client... They would be too difficult to satisfy. Everyone else knows of your reputation.

Relax

Doc

Worse still, this guy is ripping off the Air Force... tell him he better change his design up, eh.. if he doesn't want the US to invade in the spring.. because it is too damn cold to do it now of course.

that's gonna make a world of difference aesthetically. Good choice. The swedge could be tricky. An alternative would be to *gently* round over the clip to make it good for batoning and VERY nice to touch.
 
Yeah, I'm leaning that way, Daizee. Seems more my stlye, anyway.

and polish it, then cold-blue. sexy.
180, 280, 360, 600 and straight brush strokes at 600. or keep going until you're satisfied. That small surface area will sand smooth pretty quickly, even hardened, once you get the major grinding or file marks completely out with 180. Don't go up from 180 until ALL the marks are out, or they will just be accentuated by the finer polish.
