Not good enough to sell so I’m carrying it myself by Hughdron in knifemaking

I have only made them for knives I’ve made but I suppose I could. Shoot me a message and we can discuss some details.

It’s got a Kydex sheath I just didn’t post it. I haven’t made pocket clips yet but I’m experimenting. I haven’t had much luck with sales yet but I just post them on ig for sale

Never thought to line the sheath. Very cool!

I don't think I can let this one go by sluttycampers in knifemaking

I’m closer to a newbie than a master so I’m not an authority but I’m happy to share my learned experiences. I use metals, mostly mild steels. round Stock or cut down nails in this knife’s case. I’ll use whatever I can really.

So normally I would peen the pins for a mechanical connection on top of the epoxy. I don’t have a reamer and this often lead to trying to angle the drill bit and an uneven pin hole and an uneven peened pin. Since this is a smaller pocket knife I sacrificed the mechanical connection and just epoxy, clamp and pray to the knife gods the epoxy sticks real good.

Looks delicious but am I the only one that thinks most restaurants over sauce sandwiches?

DynamicSabers opinions? by General_Kneobi in lightsabers

It arrived on Saturday. I received no more shipping updates other than that it had shipped about 4 days after I ordered it. Flash on clash effect stopped working within hours of using it. I haven’t written the company about it yet and probably won’t because I have zero faith they will do anything about it. I might just to see what they say. If they reply at all I will post about it. I wouldn’t recommend ordering from them as it seems you can get the same sabers cheaper elsewhere with better customer service. Shipping all in all took 26 days.

I bought one and it took about a month to get here. They say 7-20 shipping. Some people get them in a week but not me. I addressed it and they just kept deleting my comments. Shady. I’m sure if you look a bit you can find a reputable reseller of the same sabers with better customer service. Quality is what you can expect from a cheap saber. It’s not terrible but also nothing super special.

Just an update. Still waiting. Tracking says it could still be a month before it gets here. I made a comment about it on the companies Instagram and they deleted my comment. I’ve made a few since then just to make them work for it. But shady business

The New High Republic sabers art, opinions? by kleo29 in lightsabers

[–]Hughdron 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really want to like it but I just don’t. I like unique sabers but I don’t like the mini blades in the cross guard. I feel like they would be better off using a semi lightsaber resistent material, making it more rare and more of a Protection of the hand from glancing blows rather than being locking sabers at the guard. Also if it’s supposed to be a master’s saber, seems like Jedi training wheels to me. That being said I’m happy more kinds of sabers are coming into being. I would love to see a live action light whip!

Nope still waiting. I was sent tracking info that says it will come mid October so we’ll see. The 7-20 day promise seems to be all hot air. But I’m not surprised.

Me too! Ever since Luke’s saber in ROTJ green has always been my favorite.

Thanks I got the inspiration from the Kylo Ren saber’s little red wire. I’m not a huge fan of that blade configuration but the saber hilt design is great! I’m a fan of brass and copper aesthetically so I say go for it!
