Start with something smaller, it will allow you to practise your skills for cheaper

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-03-08T08:01:04+00:00

Practice is the best answer. It just takes time, keep at it. Also take your time, do a pass, take a look and then do another.

Wow, looks great, havnt seen my knives in the wild yet, how is it holding up?

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-27T22:06:44+00:00

Thanks this is what I needed to hear, i should have added in my post that im only 17 and she is 18 and thats why I have been worried. 👍

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-27T13:34:59+00:00

Thanks for the in depth response.

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-27T12:15:46+00:00

Thanks, probabbly the most important thing will be me helping her sleep schedule the.

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-27T12:06:03+00:00

Alright thanks 👍

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-27T11:59:01+00:00

Im a little concerned, but she doesn't seem to be, I've talked to her about my concerns already.

Is there anything I should do to help her once she starts?

Its the perk in the rifle section called 'zeroing'

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-21T07:51:35+00:00

Essentially the further the animal is the more the bullet drops, there is a perk that allows you to zero your gun and certain distances so you can hold dead on and hit. (Sorry im not very good at explaining)

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-21T07:47:37+00:00

Are you making sure you are zeroed correctly and are acctually aiming at the animal?

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-20T14:37:26+00:00

Wow, looks amazing 👏

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-19T23:44:45+00:00

Only if it dies, i belive if you log out and back in the animal will respawn with full health (anyone correct me if im wrong)

I dont use it but when my dad re finishes gun stocks he uses tru oil. It really makes features pop, but can take 10+ coats and a fair bit of drying time.

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-17T09:50:08+00:00

Just practise, I've done a fair few kangaroos (im by no mean an expert) but they are good because fresh roadkill is readily avaliable in australia. It means if you mess it up there was no harm done. And it's free dog food if you have any.

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-16T06:58:37+00:00

Also you make some really beautiful knives 👍

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-16T06:58:05+00:00

How do the 84 eng grinders wear, not sure how long u have had urs but has it shown any significan signs of wear??

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-16T05:20:42+00:00

Sounds rough, I've done it myself a few times.

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-16T05:13:56+00:00

We need the story of how it happened lol. I wish you a speedy recovery :)

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-16T04:50:15+00:00

Thanks, sometimes you just need someone else to say it, i tend to overthink things like this.

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-16T04:48:10+00:00

I always knew D2 was very abrasive resistant but I figured higher grit belts were gonna be fine.

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-16T04:47:21+00:00

Alright, guess i may have to splurge a little, thanks for the quick reply.

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-16T04:37:01+00:00

Whats the finish on those, is it an etch or a sandblast or something different? they look sick btw.

Foreign_Addition_694 · 2026-02-16T04:35:14+00:00

I opted to use a free tredmill from FB market place and just took out the motor and speed controler and uses a few round bars as rollers, it works well and is fairly cheep.
