What's happening in the David Mary Custom shop?

[David Mary]

I believe you should run for some high level political office .

I think he should in his native Canada, they could use some common sense up there

I'm allergic to covfefe.

 

[DocJD]

covfefe.

I think you'd very much enjoy creating your own vocabulary ... to astound ,bewilder and confuse everyone .

 

[David Mary]

I already do that all over the forum. More for entertainment purposes, though, than anything.

My holiday weekend was mostly relaxing. But I puttered around the shop a bit too and was there late tonight. No pics to share of the work at this time but here’s the jump home:

How far about?

with that kind of gap, I would think that was a Michigan road!

How far about?

About that far.

David’ WiP picture. All three arrived to day. Neuknafstag! At later point I’ll get “in the wild photos”, but the weather is hot and rainy, so it’ll be a while.

 

[David Mary]

Glad they arrived safe and sound. I hope you like them.

Well...that certainly seems less friendly to your commute.

It’s okay. I play video games, so I know how to double jump.

I’m just excited to see what’s gonna hatch from those eggs.

So actually I did that when I was 13 or 14 but I didn’t understand centre of gravity and, well, I landed on my head. No helmet. Ever since then I have religiously worn a helmet when cycling. That is decades of commuting in multiple cities and sometimes up to 15 miles a day. Not once had an accident where the helmet would have helped since that time as a kid. But I still wear it and still will.

I’ve been doing a lot more on the computer lately, and also prepping the shop for winter and rotating out some old fixtures. But three HBs, two Baraxes, a SFB XL and a little paring knife are almost ready, as I’ve been puttering away at those as well. Boltaron is molded and I just need to drill and shape those then mark the blades, which are all sharpened and finished.

SFB XL and paring knife are not spoken for yet, and as much as I want to keep the one Barax that I was making for myself I probably should put that on the exchange as well. Been a while since anything has actually made it there. I’ll have to make a large anti scam warning like I’ve seen some guys do. First line in the post.

Actually it’s not exactly a SFB, the handle is a little differenter.

I'm a worse case negative thinker....so I was picturing this....

David needs a Sledgehammer to make the jump over that bridge.
