Use oil on your stone. the oil stops the grit from clogging every thing up There are different types of stones, some use oil some water i use oil..For me, the oil works best. water just seems messy

Brass Line 24 Snaps. A losing venture?
Frodo replied to JerseyFirefighter's topic in Hardware and Accessories
I made a joke a couple months ago that i was actually serious about A group buy, Instead of paying out the woot woot for 4 snaps. We all pitch in our money and buy a quantity I for one am up for a group buy. BUT. I want no part of the buying, collecting the funds or the distribution. In other words. I will pitch in some bucks for snaps As many people we have i do not ee any reason we can not score 10 or 20K complete snaps for a very good price -
I simply do not understand all the hub bub about stones and stuff. I make my own blades and after i have gotten it razor sharp i no longer need a stone unless I frigged up and dropped it. or a long period of time has elapsed. I have an assortment of pretty colored rouge i use on my strop. And YES, I have used and will use again, A bit of sandpaper on a ornery needle . I am a practical type of man. I have sandpaper laying on the bench for edge touch up so it may or may not get used on whatever I deem necessary at the time I use it. Ya'll stop bickering and gather around for a big ole group hug

I hear led zeppelin in the back ground playing Dazed And Confused Led Zeppelin - Dazed And Confused (Official Audio) - YouTube Large companies use large clicker cutters and do not stack the leather in high bundles, because of quality assurance If you are an up and coming company then you need to pick 5 or 6 patterns that you do GOOD and not try to make everything in the world, THAT comes after you are established. Right now it will be about building a solid clientele list and a good name Get a large clicker press and fined a company that is willing to grow with you and provide you with dies. you need to use 1 guy exclusively

I thought about applying beeswax on the outside ,to plug holes. pour epoxy into cup. then turn to evenly apply. then turn it upside down and let the excess run out. it should. in my crazy mind, leave a thin coating on the inside in 24 hours, apply another coat using the same method.

Because I made 2, one for coffee and one for tea i think the best solution is to use a food grade epoxy, and be done with the worries about the heat/cold Thanks for the offer maxdaddy. I got a guy a couple miles down the road with bee hives.

Frodo replied to Frodo's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
I open carry a 45, the chain gets all tangled and you look like barney fife trying to draw your weapon -
have you ever wrecked a bike? I have, because of that experience I orient the pockets on my wallets to be on the inside not the outside If my wallet falls out of my pocket a 40 mph. I do not want its contents all over the road with some truck driving over everything. This is a simple 3 piece wallet. it is 8''x8'' and 3''x8'' The 2 pockets is really all need, i one for cash, yep it is empty LOL one for cards
