The New Batch!

$100 apiece with Natural Canvas scales, or buy three and get the fourth one free, if I recall. Sweet deal.
 
Well I just got to work and was worried that I was going to miss out on something. Good job on the slow down Andy, just like we discussed ;). I would not worry too much fellas I'd say hes still in the shop sanding and taking pics. From the look of things in shop talk he has a butt load to do so we should get our pick. Or at least I hope so!!!!!
 
Well Andy emailed me first pick as per our discussion a while ago. Sorry guys but I got the pick(s) of the litter.
 
Fed us a dirty tater, didn't ya. Dirty.

Okay "Mr. I get the first pick so the rest of you can beg like the dogs that you are...."


What did you pick? ;)

And, what's left for the rest of us?
 
Yea I just seen over on the bushcraft knive comp thread that Andy's buffer jerked his knife out of his hand and bent the tip and when he went to straighten it out it broke. So I would say he's working the late shift to get that worked back up and try to sand out the new batch. Probably be tomorrow before he gets up the pics of the new thread. Yall can go to bed, I'll let you know when the new batch is up if it comes up tonite ;). I mean I am working nites and have to stay up anyway, someone might as well get some sleep.
 
You guys should have seen all those knives sanded and sitting in the trays. Beautiful sight, I tell you what.

I was sitting there when the knife got jerked out of his hand. I thought he lost a damn hand or something. Scared the doodoo out of me. He did that slow-moving limb counting after the loud snap sound of the knife hitting the table. I just sat there waiting to see where the blood was spirting out. Then, not too long after that, he calls me in the room to show me something on his grinder. The way his hand was positioned, it looked like his finger was caught in the rotary platen. I actually said, "Holy F@#$ I don't want to look. Just tell me what happened." Then he moved his hand and I saw he was ok. Got my heart going twice today.

YIKES!!! Glad he is OK. Things like that is what kept me from working with machinery. I work with kitchen machinery but not the kind you guys deal with. makes me queasy thinking about ti,
 
Wow. You guys watch it. We all get used to the risks peculiar to our own profession, but you can't get careless. One of my buddies was a crop duster, and he ended up stumbling and falling into his own prop. Curtains.

Stay vigilant.
 
That must have been one those "pucker factor 10" moments. Count the fingers, count the toes, make sure the manhood is still intact. Thank God he's okay.
 
Whew! Good news that everyone is all right! I definitely would not have wanted to be there when that happened...
 
A friggin wheel can turn a bit of steal into shrapnel faster than you can blink. 10 hours of boredom and one split second of "Oh SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Still watching........

I think that it is a safe bet that it is not going to happen tonite. So it will probably happen sometime in the a.m. while I am sleeping. If it does I got dibs on a Hiking Buddy with a bolstered handle. OK. ;) See yall tomorrow afternoon. Andy hope your heart rate has gotten back to normal after the near miss.

When I read his post in the bushcraft knife thread it worried me. I was hoping there were no stiches involved.

I saw the cabinet maker that taught me how to build cabinets take off a half inch of his index finger on a shaper. He was trying to make a small panel for a raised panel door. The lady just did not like the idea of a filler in her cabinets and wanted a VERY narrow cabinet there instead. The ironic part is that he knew it was impossible. He told the lady it was impossible over and over again, but somehow when she offered him 10 times what he would normally charge for his smallest door just for that door he seemed to think maybe it was possible. Now...I know it was possible but not by doing it the normal way, the panel needed to be left long, shaped, and cut to length, and then the end shaped, and would still need a lot of hand work. Still dangerous too though. Machinery will remove body parts and not even slow down much less feel remorse.
