You know, I haven't done any fixed blades yet, so I don't know where to begin.... THAT IS UNBELIEVABLE!!! :eek:

You got all the right stuff, and the workmanship is upper-end. Tell us more about your construction and extra's. Man, you are good! That is as nice a 'custom' as I have seen. You need to be proud. :)

Thanks,

Coop (who's feeling pretty jealous right now!)

Coop,

I just followed Don Cowles Tutorial on fitting dovetail bolsters (without the dovetail). Liner and epoxy colorant from TKS and it works out pretty easy.

When I did this on the only power tools that I had were a small Drill Press (couldn't do it without it, great first tool) and 1 x 30 Kalamazoo Belt grinder (sander).

Thanks for the support.
