Beautiful choppa! Little tip: you don’t want to cut too much wood on the same bandsaw you cut steel with, without cleaning out the dust collector first. That’s a shop fire waiting to happen.

I love that you used a solid bar of steel for the cutting edge. damascus is good for an outer layer, but I don't like it on the cutting edge because the different steels sharpen and dull differently, and the edge is less refined overtime. gorgeous build
@jessereid848211 күн бұрын
- Thank you. I dont do this for all damascus knives but i always do this if they incorporate copper or another soft steel.

You can trace the profile of the handle onto one piece of scale material, mark and drill pin locations, then stack and pin continuing and opposing scale material in order to make fewer cuts while making the handle. Layers 1A, 1B, 1C, 2C, 2B, 2A temporarily pinned, then cut.
@grendalnewgod21 күн бұрын
- I normally do 1 scale one camera then i pin it to the other to even out the holes and to get the same layout off camera.

Gorgeous blade. The copper on black is really striking. And don't get too comfy around that band saw. Time it takes to rip up a finger is a lot less than the time it takes to realize it's happening and react. (And I'm saying that with a half inch gash on my thumb from getting a little too comfy by the hacksaw blade on a clingwrap box in the kitchen a few days ago)

beautiful. an idea i had awhile ago that is similar would be doing a layer damascus with some copper layers, fold it a bunch, then twist it , cut that billet in half and put it around a mono steel core for the edge. maybe one day ill have the money to get someone to do it lol
@sharpy345327 күн бұрын

14:50 Perhaps use the platen edge to get the bulk of the shaping done and then use the small wheel you usually use to finish taking it down to size... That might save time in future builds without increasing the hand sanding you have to do...

Thanks for the nice video! btw: I use Padauk often with my guitar builds, there is no need to stabilize ist. it´s dense and keeps its dimensions very good! some use it even as material for fretboards - the it has to stay stable and hold the frets etc. And padauk needs UV resistant finish to hold the vibrant red hues. it shifts very fast to poop brown :D

you can take a normal porta band saw blade & over sharpen every X 2 teeth. creating a chip cleaner effect. also if u tap those over sharpened teeth with a punch in opposite directions itll cut more aggressively. basically adding 2 opposite facing teeth every X teeth.
