Nice Jason, looking good but that knuckle looks bad.

Darrell I nailed the other one same time don’t take 80 belt knock the skin off haha . Was paying to much attention to lines and not to placement of my index knuckles . Thanks

 

The original is about as wide as I can handle.
How does that walnut wonder compare to the original 66mm width?

 

After looking at the blown up pic, I figured it was something to do with a sander…..I do the same a lot on my 10” disc sander….bout the same as a bad road rash from a motorcycle wreck.

It turned out at 70mm across I would not go bigger that’s for sure . Was a little short on thickness and had to fudge it a little but that was probably for the best . Hey check it out to my other black walnut conus it’s the granddaddy haha

 

I swear this belt sander has it out for me it’s like a wild beast . Talk about road rash I remember a guy on a 500 CR no shirt and shorts .doing catwalks on this old gravel road and he put it over went down hard just full of gravel . He told me at the hospital they rubbed his back with a brush get the gravel out he said hurt more the crash haha ;-) moral story road rash sucks

 

Maybe we should trade machines change it up a little lol thanks bro

 

Eventually we'll get calluses. Right?

Heck 2 weeks ago a Forstner drill bit got me dang near took the web of my hand out. Hope Stringslap REALLY likes the magnet holder[emoji28][emoji28]

very nice ... I would widen a bit the groove to fit comfortably your finger tips ?

 

Yeah, the new one looks like the grand daddy in that family photo!

Thanks i just kinda got roughed out this morning than had go out . So how big would you go with slot and also do I bring it up into fork gap or stop before gap . Because it does feel not enough of a slot

 

Ok sorry Arturo I went back to my other post 1/2 copper pipe and looks like all the way ;-) heading out to widen it up won’t take long

 

yep, 1/2" pipe is my standard, do it all along the frame, then adjust the gap a bit to make it same width, it will eat some fork tip width (maybe 1 to 2 mm) but not a big deal for most band cuts

 

Wow really feels better that extra bit finger tips lock in way better. Got a little off to one side a touch but that happened at the start but on the bright side it worked in my favour thanks hope tomorrow I get to worked on it a little

 

OK now you're really making me feel bad! Next time I get something from you I may ask for a recent clean blood test result!

 

Sometimes...no...ALL the time...one has to be tougher than the tools!
