    https://www.bigduckcanvas.com/waxed-canvas/ All Leather/Waxed Canvas Cotton Duck, Brown - 10 oz – District Leather Supply_files/waxed-canvas-brown-10-oz try to copy/paste this and find District Leather's site. I went back to look at District Leather and it looks like they dropped waxed canvas. They had good stuff. Check sailmakers shops in SA. God bless

    Places that make cardboard boxes in quantity usually have their own die making operation. You might look around for a company like that and see if you can buy some. Heck, have a salesman call on you about making product shipping boxes for you... you don't have to order, but the contact might be valuable. God bless

    With the gator skull and all the antlers, you could make the Florida version of the 'jackelope'.... Nice shop! God bless

    Brass is copper/zinc. Bronze is copper/tin.

    Rahere, Remember when spinning, you must over twist the twines you will be reverse spinning into pairs, as you will be untwisting them as you twist the pair in the opposite direction. God lbess

    Dikman, Thank you. I have been making metal chips for nearly sixty years and have surfaced and polished up a bunch of round/head knives. Hard backed, hand sanding is THE way to go on this gently curving surface, as well as the flat. God bless

    An orbital sander has a rubber pad that will not flatten the steel very well. Wet-or-Dry paper, backed with a chunk of wood will work faster and flatten what you have. 120 to 600 grit should be all you need.

    I see the UK site carries the little saddle trees: Miniature Saddle Tree 3 1/2" Seat 5 1/2" Overall with matching stirrups

    Still can't see the tips. Are they sharp on the ends or flat?

    Look like sculptors bush tools. Better photo would help a lot...... and a view straight down on the pointy ends too.

    Black Horse, Do you know approximately where in the download that is addressed? I have the PDF file from the Tandy book store and it's a mess trying to find text that isn't spread over three pages. God bless
  19. MikeRock
    Same request as Rev Moore. Download from where? Anyone got a copy to download from?

    Thin rubber gloves, nurses/doctors gloves. Gets sweaty after a while but work fine for allergic reactions. I also second the handle plastic dip stuff. Thinned, it goes on nicely, and thinly. I wonder if heat shrink tubing would work on the body of most tools, swivel knives and stamping tools.
  21. MikeRock
    Outstanding workmanship.....not much else to say.... That is fine. God bless

    Hootsville Lutz,

    MikeRock replied to Stewart's topic in Art

    Thanks Stewart! My mother in law is an owl fan and she liked this! So do I. God bless, Mike

    Is that from a fountain pen or a ballpoint pen? What about a single drop of oxalic acid?

    Shore 'nuf........ Ijust wondered where the pocket was for him. It gets awfully messed up at times and would be too nasty to put in a nice closed pouch that could not be cleaned. Perhaps a metal lined pocket?

    Sorry.... I wonder what knife. Leatherman and flashlight.....sorry. It was the absence of a hive tool that caused me to ask. Dumb me.....
