Nope, not me, but it is the image I think of every time I think about getting one.

Note I said a few weeks, not a couple! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> $230USD comes to about $290 CAD; so I save for 5 weeks, not spending the roughly $75 I spend a week hanging out at the Ranks (Drinking mess) after work with the guys, and I'll have the cash to buy the belt sander and pay for the duty on it as well.

I like my beer, but can't afford $115USD a week! Yeesh, you'd think I have stock in Busse Incorporated to afford that! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I can't wait to get it and start practicing my skill at convexing on a sander. The ability to buy leather belts to put on it as well has me drooling, thinking how much easier it'll be to strop an edge back onto my blades! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Knife Guy, thanks for posting the link to Brian's site.


Brian, I have watched all of your videos! Thanks for taking the time to get all that info up.

The method of moving from hilt to tip is very similar to how you would on a sharpening wheel too.


Leather belts must be soexpensive as only a certain animal has that circumference <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />.

Ted.... you always seem like a great guy...But,...... "PLEASE" DON'T show me that type of stuff!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />



Although, fair warning to all. Be carefull with power tools and sharp blades. They "CAN' be dangerous.

Your welcome, but Brian deserve's the credit. He did a GREAT job with his videos. Brian has helped me on a few sharpening ventures as well. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Eh, you ought to be able to grab a Texas snake and use that. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Any chance you can provide a link???? - I pulled up Ace Hardware and couldn't find it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Thanks guys! I had good motivation though. Those videos won me 5 barkies! Can't beat that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

They are pretty cheesy, but I am glad people are finding them useful.

Brian

5 BARKIES!!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />


I thought I knew about the contest and thought it was for "1" Barkie or something or another. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Had I known "5" Barkies were up for grabs...... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" />
