What's happening in the David Mary Custom shop?

[David Mary]

Might have to start pouring my own resin scales with all the excess brass dust that just goes into the shop vac.

 

[David Mary]

step one is done anyway

 

[zaedion]

Oooooo… brass powder suspended in glow in the dark epoxy resin… I can almost see it!

Looks great when you fill in cracks in wood with it and seal it.

Welcome to David Mary Custom, where we practice unnatural and completely unethical genetic hybridization such as the soon to come Leopardwood BullDog.

Imagine me cackling in an unhinged manner. That is the manner in which I am cackling.

 

[Bigburly912]

That is some Dr. Moreau type stuff. Next you will be throwing out some snakewood and birds eye maple.

What about this? 16 1/4" with a strong, but hollow handle for more chopping bias, 10" of cutting edge and 4.6" grip area. Just a crazy idea I had while playing Tetris. Might change a bit. Or might never happen. But me likey so far. No name at this point.

 

[SharpBits]

I like the NNATP!

 

[David Mary]

I'm also getting more interested in CruWear.

I wonder if it will be as popular when the name changes to NSMWear. Same alloy. But NSMWear just sounds.... off.

N² ATP

N² ATP

That's mathematically impossible.

 

[SharpBits]

That's mathematically impossible.

When it comes to mathematics, I make my own rules!

Just leave enough pi for everyone else.

What is the wood at the bottom of the page please? It looks warm and rich.

Your guess is as good as mine. It's not Osage Orange because I didn't pull any out that day. Could be Chakte Viga, but I didn't cut any of that either. Whatever it is I don't have it slated for anything and it was just a piece that came out for Tetris.

ETA: It was Chakte Viga, aka Orangeheart, and I have enough to spare.

The fun times had by material contraints means we will see the first ever prototype of Bittier Bitey Babier Birb.

 

[David Mary]

And when this guy heard I was getting some MagnaCut, you can guess how the conversation went. "I will of course be very happy to make a prototype of each of your four new designs with it, yessir, thank you sir, you are so great sir, I wish I could be like you sir."

Spoiler: The guy

I would, if actually possible, actually probably, if possible be on the receiving end of a B to the 4th power
