  2. brilliant with file work to !!! very impressed ! is the micarta fiberouse ? if so cover in super glue and sand back , if you buff it then it will shine and be more water proof !!
  3. can we see a pic of the old tyme ebt please ?
  4. hold it over the gas ring get it melting and re shape with a spoon then sand flat job done !! i think yours to number 2 mate so the tang will not be a stick . good luck what ever you do mate .
  5. you are gonna have to burn it in them mate , drill a smaller hole than you need the tang red hot and push it very neatly into the hole for a perfect fit !! you need to keep the blade cold or you will ruin the temper so hold it with pliers in cold tap water with the tang out of the water , try to just get the point of the tang hot . if the tang is a non stick tang (top two) your in trouble .. your gonna need a budget mate although you can do it almost for free , it wont be a good job done . you could allways go ray mears style and get some amber resin from pine trees melt it with a little
  6. bloodt hell good work rob your gonna be busy mate !!!

  12. ha ha thats great kev they look really good . the kids will allways remember that !!!!!! and by the look of it they work a treat !!! keep posting on this topic im enjoying it , its made me want to make a trap or two and get some again . will you eat them ? good post !!
  13. looks good paul . its a user not a looker but that fine , you will learn lots by using it and it might shape what you do with your next design !! why not try a patina on the bleade next ? you can use branston pickle tomato sauce hotdog mustard . just aply it in some sort of patern on the blade and leave it over night wash off with clean tap water and the acids or vinigar content + vegatable extract will leave a dark pattern on the blade . it looks good . but if you dont like it 600grt paper will rub it off .

  17. bloody hell that looks great !! i love seeing what becomes of these blanks , thats a beauty !!
  18. who is that mate ? i did hear some lads where working bull greyhounds to um a few years back but they smash the dogs to bits !!
  19. iv been keeping a close eye on uk wild boar stories etc since they "escaped" sounds like there all over the uk now and the gaps between groups are closing , its only a matter of a few years and they will be uk wide !! im sure some more will "escape" over time and bloodlines will improve . has anyone bumped in to a group while out on a mooch with dog or gun ? i live near some pretty big woodland and im sure if they found there way in there it would be perminant ... we all know something about them , and that they are super agressive when they have young and are wounded . im sure they will be
