    Thank you Pastor lol the only three things i used besides a grinder, chop saw and sander were a drill press soldering torch and a small lathe. Everything is made from scratch except the all thread and two brass nuts, brass flat stock, curly maple handle.

    well i have it pieced together, I'll shiny it up a bit tomorrow lol. 18oz is what it came out to. The head is an old 1/2" cutting board figured i didn't need a new piece just to beat up lol. Guess I'll be making two thank you for your help.

    You can cut them out completely and make your own Conchos then you can use whatever screw you want all you do is solder them on the back. buy or make a doming block. https://www.harborfreight.com/hand-tools/chisels-punches-stamps/25-piece-doming-block-and-punch-set-93539.html

    excellent video!!!! short and to the point! Does the leather get thinner also or does it come back to original thickness after the vacuum is let off? Darn now i have another project to work on, a bag for my pump.

  8. chuck123wapati
    dogonit thats cool!
  9. chuck123wapati
    Not to bad at all, that stitching does stick out but the color is fine imo, nothing wrong with that.
  10. chuck123wapati
    Sweet! That looks like a big job.

    very cool i used to Knapp them out of old purple glass for practice. There isn't a lot of natural rock suitable for points around here and i really never got the hang of knocking off a good blank. Always wanted to try one out but never did get good enough to get them as sharp s they should be. I shoot a browning wasp. pse long bow, hickory self bow and a couple compounds.

    no wonder my geometrics are so shallow lol. Thank you

    Nice tool holder. Those are incredible works of art, I tried knapping a bit never anywhere near that quality so i know how much practice went into those. Have you ever tried them out on game? Those corner tangs are just badass!

    thank you I will thanks i, m using a wooden maul right now about 12 oz. lol but its worn out and needs an upgrade
  15. chuck123wapati
    What is everyone's opine on a good maul weight for tooling? I'm planning on making a new one this week. mine is to puny for some of the larger surface area stamps and such. I'm thinking about 20 oz. with some adjustment.
  16. chuck123wapati
    Now that is good thinking. if a guy were to cut some design in the outer or inner edges of the pvc with a file you could add some interesting designs. simple scallops with a round file would be easy!

    very nice work indeed! a good stitch is a sight to behold
  18. chuck123wapati
    set a cold beer on em! lol sorry couldn't help it. Maybe stack them and set a weight on em for a week or so after they are dry.

    its mineral oil I don't do anything with it. But I don't stand over it huffing it either lol. My machine is out in the garage so well ventilated and about 6 foot of tubing away from my work.

    Grass fires started by downed electric lines. Grass burns fast and hot in 60 mph winds. its not so strange if you knew about the grassland prairie, snow falls but melts off or blows away almost as soon as it lands, its just a dry place that can burn any time of the year. Last year a small town in our county was evac. for the same reason. They got the fire out at the towns edge luckily.

    veg tan and brain tan for two. chrome tan (chemical) invented about 1850. chaps were invented early in the 19th century in Mexico further evolved in Texas starting about 1830s or 40s from what i have read.

    I think you would need a vacuum pump. Its not the same as a vacuum for cleaning i have this one it works well. https://www.harborfreight.com/25-cfm-vacuum-pump-61245.html
