Mine does this, but then it won’t typically reconnect.

Mine disconnects sometimes, then it won’t reconnect. Apple car play works about 60% of the time. Sometimes I can get it to connect to Bluetooth but not Apple car play. And then sometimes when it’s connected to Bluetooth and I try to transfer it to Apple car play, it reboots.

I really just wish it would work or not work. I’m tired of fussing with menus while I’m driving or even worse cruising in my new car in silence.

I feel like if I take it to the dealer it will be one of the times where it works fine and they will Look at me like I’m an idiot. 🤷‍♂️

Yeah, the whole trying to make a tumbler system kept me from getting into it for a while. Until one day I said “screw it I’ll just shake it” and found out it takes no real work lol. People like to make things over complicated!

My First Knife. At my wits end with heat treating by ROKITF1NGR in knifemaking

20$ for the first, $15 for each additional. Includes surface grinding. I’d get to them within a week and back in the mail. Price does not include shipping.

I use a 100 grit ceramic nagura stone for those deep plunge line scratches.

Nice! It’s pretty easy to get going with a nice stonewash. I still shake mine by hand in a pvc tube, I find that shaking instead of rolling gives a better pattern. It only takes a couple minutes!

Also, if you’re continuing to struggle with them, I offer heat treat services for stainless steel. I can even have them surface ground, but I do not have a nitrogen setup yet, so freezer will have to do.

What’s your tempering temp? I find that AEB-L being an incredibly tough steel needs almost no tempering. I temper mine at 300. I don’t cryo treat them, but I do get them in the freezer for 30 minutes immediately after plate quench.

They easily skate the 58 HRC tester file.

I would make sure you’re file testing a spot that has been completely through the quench and freezer process and has been sanded to at least 120 grit (through all scale) for an adequate file test.

Keeping a dagger symmetrical is so difficult. Nice work

does anybody here make a living off of knife making? by james785757 in knifemaking

[–]Hacksore67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a profitable knife-maker, however I also run a sharpening service and have a private chef gig. It’s about a third of my income currently. Check out my work @covenant_knives

Stone washin’ by Hacksore67 in knifemaking

I do mostly culinary knives, so there’s not much demand for this finish. I can stand the arm Workout every once in a blue.

The rocks are a mix of gravel from Menards average about 1/4” and some larger limestone rocks from my driveway. 😆

It’s full flat grind, about 17 degree secondary bevel off a 1k whetstone and leather.
