ANOTHER OF MY CREATIONS

[justold52]

I too I am looking forward to hear what your ideas are pertaining to this matter .

The Dremal tool would have been my answer.

Tell us all here please. I just want to learn not that I will make one.

I am sure others here would like to see some photos from start to end on a WOODEN knife you make... We all are tool nuts in a way.

In regard to the jigging,if you do a search on here under,"Saving an oldie" I described the process with pictures.I did a Case Trapper recently using wood from a Dominican cigar box.Not sure what it was but it worked pretty readily.I am far from being a competent wood worker.
I wish my camera would take good closeups.Here is a picture of something I made several years ago for my vintage Pontiac Safari wagon:A hood ornament made of red oak,pine shim stock,and a piece of mystery wood(a wooden dowel I bought at the local hardware store.Not exactly on topic but it looks like a knife.It is actually a large version of the type of paintbrush I use in my work;a dagger striper.My avocation for the past 50 odd years has been a sign artist/pinstriper.

I would be glad to do that justold52 . No one has ever asked anything about the construction of them before . I do not have any going at the moment , but will be sure to do that for the forum when I begin another one .

The hood ornament looks great ! So does that paint job .

As for your camera , some cameras have what is called a MARCO setting in the menu . I have a Sony digital camera that has the MARCO setting on it . If you have a Marco setting in your menu on the camera , all you have to do is set the setting to Marco , and you will then be able to take some good close up pictures with your camera .

Hello again,
Just tried to enter pics of some of the wooden folders I mentioned yesterday. If the pics display OK you will see several different styles and different woods. I usually make a display case with each knife. The cases are made from many types of wood and each usually has one of my geometric inlays.
