Hey McAhron,
You could look at my humble website. I've got a selection of charts and some conversion calculators which I think are handy for knifemaking. You can print, copy or what ever you want to do with it. And it's for free Oops! nearly forgotten: Bernez's Knifemaking Info pages Bernez __________________ Be patient: in time, even an egg will walk. Last edited by Bernez; 02-08-2005 at 09:20 AM. |

Never had but one disagreement Don. I have no problem at all with the methods you use to make your obviously high quality folders. I just felt that sometimes you weren't taking into account who you might be talking to when providing advice. Your methods are sophisticated and not always within reach of the newbie folder maker. Sometimes newbies get discouraged when they see an answer that relies on equipment they can't afford or that requires skills that you have had years to acquire. It's fine that they should be exposed to these techniques, I think, but important that they also be made aware that these sophisticated methods aren't the only way the job can be done. For someone who is already an accomplished folder maker your methods may offer the next logical advancement. For a newbie, they can be a bit overwhelming.
Aside from that, sometimes I just like to jerk your chain.... |

No problem McAhron,
I've been sucking information like a sponge on these forums. I've learn so much from all you guys. Since I don't have the technical capacity (yet) and the experience like most of the guys coming here, I thought, if I can help a bit (even with something simple), I'll feel less guilty about taking so much and giving back so little.
