Twenty lashes with a wet noodle! I'm jealous.

Well, at least it's not like it used to be in the Photography world where rich guys (usually doctors for some reason) would buy all of the very best equipment - top of the line all the way - and then never finish the roll of film that came with it.

You at least make good use of your lovely little toys.

But you know, since you do have such an excess I'd be willing to, uh... store one for you.

ChrisB · #8 04-22-2009, 08:55 AM

Hey, SVD Don't try and Hog The Table, I mean There Are People in Dier Straith out Here,

Dang, i Thought Thr Spelling is Rite.

We Will See The TOOLMAKERS, No Names NO pAck Drill. Sliding Vices Next.

You'll notice I only offered to provide safe storage for one of his redundant PalmControls (I think the one with the damascus handle would fit my rather large hands best).

Of course you can make the argument that you provide a more 'offsite' storage place.

KeithPedersen · #10 04-22-2009, 04:51 PM

Are you sure it isnt a trick like the last photo of the itty bitty lock that was photographed on the coin.....

Gail · #11 04-22-2009, 05:28 PM

That is OBSCENE!!!!
Photo's like that should be banned as it is sooo pornographic!
Paul, you are such a show off. I guess Krispy Kreme does that to ya.

OK, I got to fess up , the demascus handle was a loaner from Steve. We had a little warm up mini engrave-in at the shop today , and Steve wanted everyone to see and feel the new handle. It's hard to belive that one could improve on the Palm control but the demascus handle adds a little more weight and dampening to the tool and makes it a little sweeter cutting and smoother idling. I think Steve is about as OCD as myself and is always striving for improvements to make a great tool greater.
Maybe Scott Pilkington can post some pictures of our outing today ,I was to busy drooling over John Rohner's engraved hammer collection to take any pictures.
Later
Paul

jlseymour · #13 04-23-2009, 06:52 AM

Paul I'm glad you fessed up...
Steve is sending this supply of PC's for me to decide the ones I want...
If you want another I'll send the others for your consideration...

I don't think it's the same one but check out this thread

Steve Lindsay · #16 04-23-2009, 07:11 PM

Thanks Paul for giving the hard time to Jerry.

I bet Jerry is going to get two more PCs. So then Jerry will have four in all and you'll then need to catch up to him.

I plan to make the Damascus handles for PalmControls as needed. That was the same PalmControl that Bryce and Olivia were demoing at the Kearney, Nebraska gun show last weekend. Here is another shot of it.

CJ Allan · #17 04-25-2009, 08:00 AM

OK....
How do I get one for my Artisan........??

Just ask

I planned to only make them for PalmControls but let me think about a way to attach one to your Artisan.

ddushane · #19 04-27-2009, 09:00 AM

I would love to try one, but not really being able to afford one at this time, it would cause all kinds of problems

ChrisB · #20 04-28-2009, 09:45 AM

Hey Van,
How About Making us some Very Nice Damascus for Our Classic's ??

Stanley M. Cwierz · #21 05-06-2009, 07:46 PM

That is beyond "NASTY" - Here I am a "NUBEE" -learning on a Gravermiester and you'all come up with these. Steve probably lend them to you to get a good picture. LOL

Steve Lindsay · #22 05-07-2009, 06:12 AM

I've been working on four more damascus handles. If I get time today there isn't much to go on them to finish. Two are like this one that Paul checked out and two are a mosaic damascus.

jlseymour · #23 05-07-2009, 09:50 AM

Steve have you come up with a price???
Jerry

CJ Allan · #24 05-07-2009, 10:28 AM

Right...Huh, Huh, Huh.....Right, Right right,,,Huh, Huh , Huh..

jlseymour · #25 05-07-2009, 11:58 AM

CJ you to much, I'm sure Steve will save you one, I'm sure, maybe Steve will bring some to the engrave-in...
Paul is picking him up Sat in TN and they will get to Scotts Sun or Mon...
Great to see you again...
Jerry

Steve Lindsay · #26 05-09-2009, 08:23 AM

Finished the 4 handles. All that is left is to etch them. I'll try to get that done this weekend. Later this next week I'll figure up what they will be priced at.

Gemsetterchris · #27 05-10-2009, 10:46 AM

Well i just ordered another 4 manual palm pushers to make 5 total

So i will have a nice looking selection of tools.. becoming abit of a tool tart these days

I see the order. Great, thank you. Should I just attach 4 Damascus handles to them?

Instead of "would you like fries with that?" It will be "would you like Damascus handles with that?"

Seriously though, thanks again, I'm glad you are liking the first one.

Gemsetterchris · #29 05-10-2009, 01:00 PM

They look neat and most importantly are comfy and hold the gravers perfectly and the weight is nice...
I am planning to re-invent my setting tools so i just use the templates from now on ..
Standard universal point - for engraving
Phils bulino point - no idea how to do bulino as yet but can use for other things!
Flat/knife combo - planning two flats of different widths and a knife to take place of my onglette...

Rounds or more like half rounds i started making from old bead grainers ( they work great for cutting or bead raising and are dead easy to make up) and i have a heap of old good for nothing grain tools.
I`ll keep my quick change handles for them as they fit better being metric sized. I have stained and polished the handles to match though

M42 blanks are great once the initial shaping is done.

Well spotted Danny

The Palm Control is the only one that I have gotten a dozen Krisp Kream Donuts with...
It's worth it, the PC and donuts...

You've hung around Paul too long Jerry. PC, donuts and a game of pool.

Completed the four Damascus handles over the weekend. Now just to setup and try to shot some good shots of them.

KMPaulson · #34 09-07-2013, 05:44 PM

Anything worth doing is worth over-doing.
Enjoy.
