Members Brokenolmarine Posted October 22, 2024 Author Members Report Posted October 22, 2024 One last set of pictures.... I put some trim on the sides of the display case with the for the sole purpose of hiding the cleats from view. I didn't think they would be that noticeable as you came in the door but they really grabbed your attention first thing. The trim matched the case very well and blended right in and was hardly noticeable. THAT was my intent. I installed it with two sided tape yesterday, just to see how it looked. I brought the compressor and pinner in today and tacked it in place. Turned out well. The last pic is this one. I spent Sunday working in the shop as well... but as a maid. I did some detail cleaning on the benches, tables, and the rest. Picking up and sweeping up, putting away small items left out and throwing away trash. Then I moved some roll around tool away from the wall to sweep and discovered some mice had chewed into the spray foam. I used Tina's miracle bug spray and went around the shop and sprayed a wide stream around the perimeter. This morning I found a large number of the beetles that plague Oklahoma and one mouse. I repeated the spray pattern. Shop looks nice now, so I guess it's time to start another knife project. A stag hunter I think, then the sheath. Quote

Members JDFred Posted October 25, 2024 Members Report Posted October 25, 2024 Turned out beautifully! Even the shop looks good after you got done with it. Quote
Members sportycliff Posted October 29, 2024 Members Report Posted October 29, 2024 Great job! Thanks for the story, my timing finding it was perfect. I got to read and see it all at once. Quote
Members blue duck Posted November 13, 2024 Members Report Posted November 13, 2024 Great job. No one seems to think a project like this should take as long as it does. Tictok etc. makes you think it can be done in a few minutes. Thanks for post. Quote May God Smile on you today.
CFM chuck123wapati Posted November 13, 2024 CFM Report Posted November 13, 2024 excellent job indeed!!

I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” THE DUKE!
Members bladegrinder Posted November 13, 2024 Members Report Posted November 13, 2024 That came out looking great, you should be proud of that piece! Quote
