yard sale find and unmarked. Wife said maybe sewing and I think maybe for rolling a flat seem on the edge of leather due to narrow gap of the rollers.

Delrin is a synthetic material that has been used for pocketknife handles for years. I would suggest an arbor press with a hole for the shaft and many do not come that way. Or maybe a modified large C clamp.

My local fabric store sells Singer Pro series five pack of beeswax cakes to rub on unwaxed thread. Keep it in the refrigerator so summer heat does not melt it. Just wax what I need.

I seen a "sap" for sale in a local antique mall booth. Made in Detroit Mich. years ago. Legal to sell? Local auctioneer is smart, sells a book of matches and give you the questionable object.

If I remember correctly a Harbor Freight press does not have a hole predrilled at the end of the ram to hold items, although the new ones may have. This can be done for you. Also some good tips on YouTube to make it better.

Hello neighbor and welcome to the group.

That may be due to our NAFTA free trade agreement with Canada?

My very limited experience is that if the machine was built and sold with a serial number by an american company , I would think their would be no import tax. With the dollar exchange rate, cost of shipping, and time thru U S Customs along with the boarder closing due to the Covid, their must be a sweet deal of the price? Again if made off shore and sold around the world by many companies then their is very likely to be a tax and the vendor should tell you that over the phone.

New home construction in my area of the states and rentals requires 100 amp minimum and some go up too 300 amp service. Some are big on central heat and air and entertainment. copper wire prices are high. (*I'm in the regional area of Western Australia), I read that in some of the Ozze homes are so remote that they have one wire to it and a earth return ground. 10 Amp service seems small?

Here in the states i knew a bicycle shop that had a single phase to a 3 stage converter. When it shut down it went bang! Bang! Here 3 phase is 440 volts AC. Maybe check industrial surplus dealers for a used one or a old time electrical shop that may have a used one? I do not know what your country has for A.C. power or if you will need larger service or sub breaker. a whopping great 3ph generator. sounds like something industrial on a trailer.

I might ask how tight you you measure with your venier slide or dial calipers? Just barely or snug. Same for a snap gage or regular machinist caliper. If mail ordering you will need the proper measurement. I feel a slight variation is normal.

For chef knives, The handles are always down in a roll as the each blade is a different length and width. The main thing is to quickly pick your working tool in a restaurant and many chef's take their working tools home or to another location. Al way's hand wash chef knives never a dish washer and some cost $250 to over $1,000 USD. each so a roll keeps the blades from rubbing together or chipping or dulling them. Really!

The Bucket Boss for your pail may be a good option. Garage sales are my friend.

Unless you're new phone has a lot of storage or a large Micro SSD card 3 megapixel will fill the storage space fairly quickly. From the net, =Dimensions: 600px to 650px is still the best image size for email. The most popular screen resolution worldwide—across both mobile and all platforms—is 360×640. On my Android phone at the top left of the phone screen is a wheel. That drops down a menu and has a help place to click on. Hope this helps.

I will find out as I mostly resew old hunting knife sheaths and may need to open a stitch hole to pass a needle thru. Or I would have to make a wood handle for it. For a larger men's hand it should be okay.

Don't show again. Image way to large.

Sorry I'm rather sure they did post. I selected nuts for the with of several file tangs. Drilled near the size of the nut then used the drill press chuck to press the nut into the ball.

I put A broken 1/16th drill bit in a drill and held to my one inch belt sander. The golf ball is drill out with a nut pressed into it for a file handle as seen on YouTube. The hex was a tad big so revered it in the drill and a slight sanding then put into a bench vise and tapped the ball on. Some file handles don't stay on well but it does okay. I will try it out. Bob

Thanks, I was going by the best of kitchen cutlery like the Kyocera Company brand which is more for cutting produce. The swivel knife may be made of a lot different materiel and I assume you meant wet or dry auto body sand paper and not flint sand paper for wood?

Of ceramic knives, yes they are brittle, drop it once or hit something hard it may become useless. Only a very fine diamond hone will sharpen ceramic however you may find a leather strop on a piece of wood with compound could remove unseen micro particles of leather or paper material stuck to the ridges. The original ceramic kitchen knives were undetectable by airport XRAY machines so they required them to have metal particles in the material. Your blade may not have them and I do not know the year this change came about.

I have the wheel system although I own a digital speed controlled motor and belt driven arbor. Sharpen is a leaning process and rarely use full speed. For wood carving with palm and mallet tools I do not grind on the tool edge only hone and do not leave a wire edge. That is for wood lathe tools.

Of eBay, search closed auctions, to see what actually sold and for how much. Esp. the Tippman machine. many listing may not have a bid. Then figure how to price shipping. it would be best if someone local would give a fair price for all, as most only want the better stuff and leave the rest.

In the U. S. contact a local Fastenal store. I do not know about cost but they can pack and ship for you. https://www.fastenal.com/
