  1. What are these crazy devices for? #ScruffyFaceClub

     

    Women.

     

    ha ha ha. I too have a beard...but I still enjoy making them. Buy them for your wives. Ha ha.

  2. Well, I've decided to start dabbling with things other than boujee shivs.

     

    Here is a safety razor and stand I finally finished yesterday.

     

    Thoughts? Constructive criticisms?

  3. What are you making the steel out of? I looks like it was heated so I'm guessing you didn't buy them premade.

     

    One of those rods is titanium, the other is SS. I just buy brass, steel, and titanium rod stock. Cut to length, grind down the point end on one side and thread the other side. Use a torch to heat and get the funky colors I want if that is the direction I am going to go.

  4. Wow yeah that would be a lot of work. I've looked at some of the walking stick DIY forums and people usually buy through a few places that make the tips, etc, but the price is pretty high.

     

    How were you trying to incorporate the brass into the stick?

  5. Nice work! Where are you getting the brass looking pieces? I've been trying to decide how I'm going to finish some walking sticks that I have drying in my shed.

     

    I make them. I buy brass sheet, cut into smaller pieces, drill a hole through them, slide them over the spike in between the inlace and antler sections, then grind, sand, and polish into shape and finish I need.

     

    This stuff is a lot of work, especially considering the tools I am having to use, but I have some interest in the purchase of some of them at a price I can live with on my end, so it's worth it since I enjoy making them.
