You can actually fold kydex with a heat gun - it won't be the ultra formed perfect shape you'd get putting the kydex in the oven, but you can get a functional, rattle-free fit pretty easily.

A toaster oven works great for smaller knives, and is cheap.

Good point. I probably could make sheaths for all my 5" and under knives with a toaster oven.

I will be in your neck of the woods next week MM.

A week of training in Peachtree City.

Peachtree city is so yuppie... full of golf carts and people who wear sweaters when it's 75 degrees outside <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" />

It sure is yuppie.

I usually ride a bike from the training complex to the liquor store on the cart paths. Those yuppies will run you right off the path with those carts!

For those who bought one at BLADE, the regulator 6 months will end in about a week. I'll be listing my spare for sale very soon after that.

I have some good pictures of that sucker in action <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

YEah, I'm parting with one too! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />


Enjoy every sandwich.

Been a while since I had a chance to chat at night. How is everyone doing?

I wonder what's a fair price to ask for the regulator. They are worth their weight in gold IMO <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Sounds like a lot of you guys have a wife like mine--no fun stuff in the kitchen. I have thought about looking for a little toaster oven to use for kydex making, and a belt sander so I can try my hand at machine convexing since it take forever by hand.
