Polar Bear Forge

Does anybody know if Jamie is still offering his GIB 2.0? I have emailed and called him with no response to either. Is he even still in business? Thanks for any help.

he is probably tied up at work. if he gets behind there he has to work overtime to catch up. I waited over a month to get my sling combo and now its up and running, the more I use it the more I love it.once I fabbed an adjustable tool rest on a sleeve mount it became a real grinder. one way it covers the platen and flipped it get the wheel.

Yeah, he can be hard to get up with, but the GIB is worth it. KN4WD glad to see another ham/knife maker K4FZG.

I can't seem to find any contact info on him. I was looking to get tongs from him but he doesn't sell them anymore. Apparently there is going to be a dxf file of the tongs that I could take to a shop and have them cut, but I can't find that file either.
