  • @keirfarnum6811

    Interesting design; turned out well. For my own, I made a blade with a “tang” that went the full length of the handle and mounted the wood handle on the top side only; sort of a hybrid between a Japanese steel blade knife that normally wouldn’t have a handle and a western style marking knife with a wood handle. I like it because it has no handle on the underside to get in the way if I want to use it with something thick.

  • @rileye6235

    I don’t know why but my favorite part is when you start carving the wood for the handle sooooo satisfying!!!

      That's why I love lathe work, whether it be metal or wood, as watching the material change like that is so satisfying. Bringing metal to a chamfer or squaring an end off, ring by ring, or adding oil or wax to wood, on and off the lathe

      A coworker was drilling out a hole of some piece of metal, and although he did used a drill chuck, he uderestimated the force of the drill once it got stuck, so he completly smashed his hand against the machine because he didn't let go. Took a few operations and a couple of months to get his hand working again. Another one was wearing gloves for protecting his hand against the drill cuttings untill a big one got stuck in his glove and almost took of his thumb. So the moral of this is that you always keep in mind that a machine doesn't have any remorse and kill or mutilate you in a blink of an eye without saying sorry :).

    Very nice! Makes me want to make one with my dad. He and my grandfather have always been wood workers, and I have become more and more interested in metal and wood working. Sounds like a great father son project that we could do together. And I bet we could use one of my grandfathers old pieces of metal (saw blades, files or something) to make one of these. The aesthetic is even exactly like the stuff that my grandfather would have made. We can use his old lathe and lathe tools to make the handle. I have a piece of black walnut that might look really nice.

      carbide blades have noticeably softer disks (depending on brands). This had carbide edges. industrial size blades are harder even with carbide tips since the stress and speed of the blades are quite high.
      You can see the second blade has no carbide tips on it, hence the hardness in the whole blade.

    I was wondering what that was for, my question was answered at the end. Excellent work.

    If you want to prevent a piece from spinning on the drill press you can just put a nail or a screw in your wooden table that will block the movement of the piece if it comes to spin (idk if it's clear, i'm not suggesting to screwing the piece you're drilling, just placing a screw in the table to prevent the spinning)
