A lively discussion on nothing particular except for Bob's rascally saw and Matt's saw handle taking the gloss of things:
The subject of beer commercials did surface and the distinct lack of JP Corona commercials: Can't think why. So for those of you who feel starved for alcoholic content have a gander at this:
Beers from the Arctic Ocean - Underwater matured beers - North & Beyond Ep. 8 - YouTube
One of a series of "adventures" north of the artic circle: This one was the conclusion of brewing beer from glacial ice and fermenting it deep in a fjord.

I'll be bringing a 50ft blackwood tree that is at about 45deg at the moment. Nice tree fairly straight and clear. It will fall in a day or two, it might hit the new deck belonging to next door. Its his tree. What about the subject tonight of free wood.
Ummm. I'm not sure Pagie's tree will fit on my screen.
Matt
As you will not make it this evening, here is the highly sophisticated wooden handle polisher that I use:
Attachment 503105Attachment 503106
It is an automotive style car polisher that is fairly low speed. 10" diameter with a sheepskin bonnet. The relatively thick shape allows the curvy bits to be polished too with the edge. Very expensive but worth the $22.
If you think this is cheating a little, may I draw your attention to this little clip from the Disston factory. View the polish scene around the 40sec mark. It dates from 1920.
HD Stock Video Footage - Specialty saw blades being manufactured in the Disston plant at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
I have posted this link before so it may not be a revelation to you.

Paul, first can I just bring your attention too the actual date today,
I’m fairly certain Australia has not been devised up that bad yet, that Queensland think there ahead of the rest of the nation!!!!.
Maybe ask Leanne for some help.
But more importantly your buffer certainly looks like a economy version.
Will check the Link out, thank you.

Seeing that it is our 57 wedding anniversary today, I think it would be a wise move to spend the time with my wife and family
Bob
We had our 57th in July. It only gets better from now on.
SNAP Oldgreybeard......It's our 39th anniversary today as well.
Another lovely Sunday night chat dominate by the Star sign Leo.

This is the little carving/hobby knife set to which I referred. I said I didn't know where I bought it, but with the Workzone brand on it I am thinking Aldi. It is complete, primarily because I have not yet used it.
I think it will be very useful if I ever find a use for it. :rolleyes:

I took Jools to see the James Bond movie last night for her birthday. We went to see it at Coburg Drive-in so we had comfy seats and were safely isolated from the unwashed masses who may or may not be infected with Covid.Quote:

Following on from Matt's comments
Mostly about marking knives with a few deviations.
I have been offered a broken 315mm diameter broken Brobo Metal cutting mitre saw blade. It is probably 20 years old and thought to be a tool steel - possibly a HSS. Is it any good for knife making?
I will have more info in a couple of weeks.

Bob. that's the sort of question which, if asked on a knifemaking forum, would result in bitter arguments and probable bloodshed.Quote:

Also for knifemaking, HSS does not really hold a fine edge well. It is good with edges angled closer to the vicinity of 90 degrees like lathe cutting tools, but not edges used on knives which are often well under 10 degrees.
Heat treatment and tempering would also be difficult in the home workshop environment.

Not sure if I will be able (allowed) to participate as we have a visitor and I am frowned upon if I make a bolt for the computer. We will see. If the visitor and SWMBO wish to engage in serious girl talk, bordering on secret women's business, I may be excused.
Files are always a good and sometimes controversial subject. As it happens I bought some "experimental" files and rasps recently, which is not quite as exciting as it may sound (actually as I am typing I'm not sure why anybody would consider it exciting) as I have not yet experimented with them!
