  1. I can copy the pages you need. I see a used copy for ONLY $318......wowsers. Drop me an email. mikerock at mhtc.net. God bless
  2. Awesome! Love this place!! God bless
  3. He replied that he does not do rolls. God bless
  4. I just emailed to ask about roll stamps.
  5. Alex has a good site. Long time loading the gallery, so I'll ask, does he make roll stamps yet? God bless
  6. Thanks. That was the puzzling part, no slug clearance for punched pieces. Since the edges 'look' designed to cut, I am checking out old patents and other crafts/trades. Any lettering at all on the boxes would help, but since you don't have access, that shall remain a mystery for now. God bless
  7. Are those hemispherical holes in the ends of the punches? God bless
  8. A lot of useful capacitor information is here: https://inspectapedia.com/electric/Motor_Capacitor_Selection.php#CapCatalogs
  9. The barn Nisse care for the animals year round when we are away. My wife sent this from her home in Norway after she retired and returned. With six drafts and two saddle horses she thought she'd better send an instruction manual for Nisse. She passed away 24 Oktober and we had just talked about this long ago Christmas card, so it is special to me. Merry CHRISTmas to all and a healthy new year. God bless.

    Christmas Cookie

    That looks good enough to eat! Say, how about cutting a big 'bite' out of one edge of the coaster.....like an eclipsed moon.... that would get the recipient thinking. A bit to much eggnog and he might try another bite! God bless
  11. Thanks! That particular book has great measurements for most horse harness. His 'folksy' style wore a tad thin after about ten readings, but he darn sure gets the points across and gives almost a stitch by stitch procedure. God bless, and a Merry CHRISTmas to you. Mike

  13. Dwight, I'd add one thing. After cutting off, smack it once, to enlarge the shank. Then begin the peening and then the 'purty' smack. Sometimes when doing the peening around the top of the fresh cut the rivet might loosen a bit. That's why the initial smack. God bless Mike
  14. Any idea how long this endures the ravages of every day life? If the edge gets scuffed, would one just repolish the surface and be at least part way back to this gorgeous finish? Looks like a miracle in a jar. God bless
  15. If you can figure out how to do that on human skin you could put the tattoo industry out of business!!
  16. Thank you for the stamp information:) That sure puts a bar grounder to shame. God bless
  17. Awesome....again!! What kind of background stamp do you use on this? I've looked for repeating patterns and 'think' I find some, but a second later can't find it again. That is such a nice background. God bless
  18. Welker Handmade Leather Stamps Must be out of business. Website times out and doesn't load....
  19. The two dollar bill was funny. I got a bunch of them at the bank a few years back, just because they had them. Passed them out and watched folks try to figure out where in the cash drawer to put them. One girl, one of the ones who needs a digital clock because she can't read one with hands, she thought it was counterfeit and wouldn't take it. Glad to see they'd be welcome in Russia!! GREAT workmanship on that wallet, edging is beyond cool. God bless
  20. Wow.......such beautiful tools!
  21. Oxalic acid, wood cleaner, at most hardware stores.
  22. Thank you YinTx. That makes it similar to a flat punch I used in the late 60's. Worked fine after I polished it up. God bless
  23. YinTx, what is the shape of the awl blade? Can't really tell from the photos. They only say 'flat'. God bless
  24. I knew I was leaving the door o-PUN to this...... oh well. :)))
