Nike still makes slides?

They heard you wanted some, so they dare not discontinue them for fear of your wrath.



So, a story that some of you might get a kick out of. I have been bound and determined to finish my next brass back bowie before Blade. With everything else going on. I just got to it four days ago, I had all of the materials collected, but I litterally locked myself in the shop the last four days and strated from ground up. I got all the parts made, blade cut, ground, heat treated, brass spine set, S gaurd made, malicite and mokume spacers and curly maple handle made, totally assembled then came the finish work today. I thought I would make it, things where looking good. It has 32 gold and silver bezeled emeralds that im enlaying in the tang and brass spine, I machined all the holes and test fit the jewels only to find out that one of the emeralds I got was mislabeled and was the wrong size. That's right, im one emerald short of being able to finish it for Blade.
I hoping the supplier will be able to next day me one stinking 3MM emerald to my cousins house in Atlanta.........:rolleyes: ..........always sumthin.........

a handful of glitter should do the job.

Good luck at Blade, Todd!

Maybe there's some left over from the last BH gathering. Probably not though.
 
Really? Wow, that's cool. I'm liking this. :thumbup:

Yes, just one of the many obscure perks of being Tradewater. The Republic of Malta also has a holiday dedicated to you. The main even is a kayak parade where the participants get drunk and paddle down a stream flicking snakes at each other.
 
Bigghoss can't wear Nikes, he thinks they're too mainstream. He wears bedazzled cardboard shoes with fluffy faux fur sticking out the sides.
 
Hope you manage to take pics of that new brassback when you finish it, Todd, before someone snaps it up. Sounds like a real piece of art.

I'm honored, but I think you're still my biggest fan. ;)

Damn fuel pump/labor went from 325 to $385....But its done.

It doesnt help that i have no idea the difference between a fuel pump and rhinoceros....

I'll still send you some funds for snail mail. PM sent. Thanks WW!

Nothing needed brother i got you covered!

Thanks WW! Sent you an email since I can't PM.

I didnt get it. If you sent it through the forum i may never get it. Sometimes it takes a few hours, its been more than a few though, sometimes i never get them that way... Lost in bladeforums limbo i reckon.

A pump moves liquid. Fuel is a flammable liquid that can be burned in an engine and used to do work. A fuel pump pumps that fuel from the fuel tank (a storage device for the fuel) to the engine where it can be used. Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.

You don't have to. All you need to know is that if an auto mechanic tells you that your rhinoceros needs to be replaced, then you should find another mechanic. Or start riding your horse to the shop instead.
