Really i'm Gunna........

Yeah, yeah - i'm gunna make blades again... really.
Had a heap of hassles in the place we are renting and decided the best fix {not just that, but timing for market, etc.} was to finally buy our first house.
i had already dismantled the old multi-tool, drawn up plans and started collecting parts to build my new Super Grinder, but the decision to buy came before i bought the steel for the frame. Just about finished the new workbench it will be mounted on, but all monies are going into buying a house, so the grinder is on hold again. :boohoo:

Anyhoo - we just bought a place on Saturday. Get the keys at the end of August. Have to spend a little time painting and eventually re-do kitchen and bathrooms. But before those rooms i have to build a workshop. Yep - no dedicated work shop there yet. In the short term i will use the garage, but there is already a concrete slab in the backyard so i will build a free standing workshop there that will allow me to work at night without keeping everyone awake and complaining. Finally !!!
So it's good news, but a frustrating wait. i have materials for several knives and razors collected, designed and ready to go as soon as i get the grinder finished. They will be started in the garage at the new house, so though the hours i can work on them will be limited it will help calm the nerves.. :medvl:
Once the workshop proper is built, everything will ramp up.
So yeah... gunna get back to it..... really..just watch this space.....:popcorn:

Can't wait Adam, especially if you happen to make a scale-less straight. I'll be all over that.

Good on ya Adam. Having your own place has gotta be a big help. G'luck !

Onya Adam. Stay patient mate. I understand what yer sayin'. I'm doing a basic resto (new one piece handle) on an old butcher knife at the moment, and it just seems like one delay after another with the damn thing. Lukily it is a family members knife and not one for a paying customer type person, otherwise I'd be in the shit by now.
