    the next blanks are a type of stick tang , there is 10 of them , same blade profile , iv heat treated them and will grind them sharp , its going to be for you guys to take them to what ever finnish you like and think of ways to handle them , there quiet different . as i say the challenge should you choose to accept it ha ha will be to out do each other with handling and finnishing . keeps the comp changing . if this is going to be a regular thing il need to get more designs cut !! no problems with sending back guys when your ready , i dont know when xmass mail will start but its something

    when your ready to send them just pm and we can organise postage etc . it doesnt take anything for me to do it , so i can do them one at a time . are you guys using the hard backing on your paper ?? it makes a huge difference if the paper is backed with something very hard like metal . you can press down harder and get alot more from the paper , when you get to fine grit you can leave the last piece of paper on and simply add the next over the top . also are you clamping it down ? i used a G clamp to hold down a length of 2x4 timber to the bench then another G clamp to hold the blank to t

    you could allways establish a uniform scratch pattern , same as beofe just use 120 grit paper . just do perfect straight lines from reccaso to blade point . its a dshame you got bored of it , you might wish you had got them out when its all done !
  13. midnight
    scratch wise take it to 400 grit , then drop back to 120 , then work up to 400 again . you have got to be dead strict with the directions you move the paper . i dont think they look to bad for the time in them ! there is one or two emergency blanks if needed !! £300 back hander will get a full ground blank ha ha

    thats what my customer keep telling me time are hard, money is tight, and fuel is deer . and im no better of myself . the days of its only £30 worth of fual are over , it would cost about £75 in our car to get there and back , maybe more !! people are genuinely looking closer to home these days for young stock , its a shame when litters like this are available . maybe you should offer a lift to anyone that might be on route for you , can pay a few ££ towards fuel and you both get your pup !! worth a try will help 3 parties out guy with pups you on fuel and another fella with transport and

    just some small die pins mate , they get really hot if you using a grinder and ruined apoxi adhesion , hard to polish to . i thought about it and could not soo the benifit to them , brass and ally both dont rust , they peen over when you hammer them , the same price etc . i had to say there is no benifit at all by using them i could see , and the work load is higher ! just my thoughts on it . ally miriors very well is easy to shape and afordable , brass is the same just has a classic look to it i think ? all the best , matt
