Thread: What are you working on?

Mike you and the spies have done well. Having no access to those kinds of shops, it blows me away what you and the spies have done, and what you do with to what is hunted from the wild.
Good work.
Jerry, I’m continually impressed with your organizing.

No eBay for me.
Everything I or my spy's find, is from the wilds. With exception to some that have come from other members of this forum.

I guess u don't know what I gave for it, then.

***ALL OTHER PROJECTS TO THE DRAWER***

I did however win this one.

With the original box with both ends still intact.

Advertised as 17/16" (actually as 1, 1/16") but is actually 35/32"

After that nasty chip is fixed I may still get really close to 8/8" out of it.

Just one tiny chip in the horn. Otherwise just minute edge fraggle that can be sanded out. Conceivably this one could be too but I don't think I want to narrow them that much.


A lot of work but seems very doable without too much trouble. Overall I'm thrilled.
Any suggestions?

I can't really tell from the picture but maybe I'd rather not know.

Does that say $14.00???

Get -r- Done. If its wee little.... Leave it

Thought I'd seen you post that one. Forgot all about it.

Should come out very nice, for ya.

Scales were almost FUBAR, but I managed to save them.

Hey, Mike. I went to Wally World and found a set of plastic drawer trays for forks and spoons and such. Think it cost me 3 bucks. I did a little trimming and hot glued some seporator pieces in. Then cut a 2x4 to fit in the top and drilled boles for the spindles. It took longer just writing the sizes on the sanding discs as that wears off some times and im not sure what one is. So i marker them all to be safe.

If that is $14 then I don't know whether to say "you suck" or say "you're my hero." If you played for the NHL plus that and I would ask you to marry my daughter.
