Sarci sparki 16 Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Good luck mate look forward to seeing it pal Being toying with the Idea of paying the full hit for a custom target scorpion, almost convinced myself but seen one of midnights knives off here, went with that instead for now lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Good choice mate. I'd love a proper custom. Its not just the price though its the wait aswell 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 First day at it today, shabby as f**k but the basic shape and the canted forks are there. Moulded perfectly to my hand. Over to the files tommorow to clean it up. Then its getting sent away to be dolled up 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bobcullen79 1,495 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Is that polymorph? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Longers7 720 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Looks like candle wax...... May be a bit soft mate ;-). Looking good so far tho! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Ye its polymorph, harder to work with than I thought. I was worried about the strength but its solid. Will look a lot better tommorow when I sort the tips out. There 4cm now so gonna reduce them to 2.5cm. Once its sent off it will look stunning. Then I will add the finishing touches which is going to involve black spray paint and a pewter pheasant pin 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1Wally 204 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 I just saw this and got all excited and ordered myself some polymorph lol. I might not even make a catty out of it but I want to play too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Its harder to work with than what I thought it would be. My advice is to let it cool a little once you melt it or its just too pliable and won't keep shape. Also do it abit at a time don't try to do it in one melt, it won't happen lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sarci sparki 16 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Taking shape mate its looking good, you'll be charging $300 a custom soon lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Taking shape mate its looking good, you'll be charging $300 a custom soon lol Lol, I can tell you know though, bill is definetly on to something with the canted forks. Mine will be even more canted than his because he cuts the handle at an angle which means he is restricted on how much he cants the forks. Whereas with mine the forks are bent so my wrist is fully straight, I can tell straight away its a great concept Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mad4it 693 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 looking good i cant wait to see it finish, having made one yourself you can see why bill charges what he does. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Here she is all smooth and evened out. Put the pinky hole, band groves and aiming dimp in today. Banded up so I can try it out tommorow before sending it off for some new clothes. Fits the hand like a dream Quote Link to post Share on other sites
