Does anyone have any idea when the "for sale, trade, or WTB" thread will be up and running? I have something I want to sell but I am trying to be patient so the Buck Collectors have first crack at what I will put up for sale.

Hi Ron...

I've been wondering the same thing...

Well...I got my first non-wood liner 110. Mica.

Nice, but not certain I will get another one (famous 110 collector last words?).

I prefer the natural material liners as, to me, they seem more ol' skool.

Oh well...if the "sale/trade/WTB" was up, I'd offer to trade it for a BG-42 110 in new condition or somethin'.

But I guess I'll have to wait
.
:rolleyes:
 
Buckoholic,
If I am not mistaken I think the Mica is another name for asbestos and if it is the mica like they used to use for windows in the old wood burning stoves then it is asbestos. Don't chew on it okay! just in case!

Yeah, we need that link up for selling, trading, or WTB...hope it comes soon!

Mica, micarta, formica, makes for some interesting reading should you decide to research it. Kept me entertained for about 30 minutes... yeah, yeah,, short attention span. :o

how do they keep mica from flaking apart when used as a handle? I have handled mica in its natural state, and it can be flaked apart in layers with just your fingers.

Hi RF...
Guessing it has to be treated in some manner. (??)
All I know is that, based on muzz said, I'm not gonna be ingesting any.

I copied this from the wikipedia link in my pic post...

"Mica has a high dielectric strength and excellent chemical stability, making it a favored material for manufacturing capacitors for radio frequency applications. It has also been used as an insulator in high voltage electrical equipment. It is also birefringent and is commonly used to make quarter and half wave plates.

Because mica is resistant to heat it is used instead of glass in windows for stoves and kerosene heaters."
