Thomas W.Ward in horn
It's been a while since last time I posted anything in here, for two reasons:
1-Haven't really done anything special enough to show.
2- My belt sander caught on fire while making some scales a few months ago. Interesting experience, caught a strange scent, but didn't give it much thought since I was working with horn (we all now how that smells
) and kept going, suddenly I was surrounded by smoke flowing out from the motor, needless to say it didn't work after that.
Haven't come around to get a new sander yet, so these are made by Dremel and hand sanding.
Thomas W.Ward & Co. aprox 13/16, half hollow.
Since I haven't got a grinder I left a few marks to keep the lines and geometry.
Scales and wedge made of horn, brass pins and stacked washers.
Before:
After:
Tight fit:
What you see around the middle of the wedge is a reflection of my reflector, not an imperfection
Thanks for looking.Need help or tutoring? Check out the .

Hmm, getting little red X's for the pictures.
The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.

Looks great! The blade turned out nicely, and I like the shape of the scales.

Very Nice! A different look, yet goes together so well.

I rest my case.
