I like the mod it looks good. I love my Dremel it is one of the most versitile tools ever. You know those little disks of sandpaper that come with the drill.
I make my own out of thicker belt sander material it is way cheaper than the drums and works good. I use quarters to draw a circle and cut it out with old garbage scissors. It makes the work of hand sanding and polishing much easier and you can have any grit.

Is this the pic? I've posted this one before, but the picture belongs to Cliff Stamp. From some of his testing. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

That's the one! Thanks, you saved me from having to search through my massive collection of saved Rat pics. (Sorted by forum poster)

Sorted by forum poster, eh? That could work. I sorted all mine by blade model. Of course, since there are so many pics with multiple blades, that just means I have one HUUUUGE folder called "misc" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Yeah, it’s also an intelligence gathering capability. Cause then I know what knives everyone has if I ever wanted to offer any trades. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> You could also make folders by blade model, but instead of having duplicate pics, just copy a shortcut to the image instead of copying the image. Takes much less disk space that way.

The smell of cutting elk antler with a cut off wheel is awful and probably
similar to burning tooth. I used to love roast pork and now I will think of burnt human flesh next time. Yes I know the stinky stuff was a whole page ago but who
doesn't love this topic?

Burning teeth, bone, or hair is really gross... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Poor Gen 1 HR........I weep at its passing.

But yes burning bodies is a smell never to be forgotten.

..The Resiprene showed very little effect after being in the fire for easily 20 full seconds..
Thanks for posting that burning HR pic!
While trying to melt res-c to try to fill in the voids in my handle.. i found res-c burns quite readily! not like gasoline Poof! more like cheap birthday candle wick (gotta hold it in the fire for awhile).. i'll try to elaborate maybe w/ more pics later..

Let's see pics! that sounds pretty neat.. are you talking about making sanding drum cylinders? or those flat cutoff disks for cutting metal?

Andy & 360joules.. wow you guys are Sick!
I thought about database driven with searchable text keywords.. so i can punch in say.. "chopper" + "rat" + "sick puppy".. and the results would be pics of YOU Two! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Nice mod. I got an SS4 about a week ago. At first I did not like the handle at all and have considered selling or trading it. However, the more times I pick it up the more it grows on me. It may be a keeper. Got a Bandicoot coming in the mail for handle comparison (and use, of course).

How do you post multiple qoutes in 1 response?

Thanks,
Same thing happened with me!
I bought an HRLM from the Swamp to play with, sell later, just to tide me over while waiting for the "2nd Offer SS4".

But when I got both, and really used both.. that HRLM grew on my like Crazy!
But as you said.. it took awhile for me to realize!

Couple years ago I had to get rid of ~20 firearms in a hurry.. less than 5 minutes I picked out 2 to keep, less than a week sold the rest.

Maybe as I get more experience with these Busse/Swamp/Scrap knives.. I'll learn to discriminate faster.. maybe not! Sure is fun though!

Cut and paste. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> I type my replies in Word, then post them after I'm done. That way if the browser crashes, I won't lose all my text. (Which has happened many times)
