I still think you could shift a few on a fishing forum.

Today's work was on a big alox monster with brass liners. I like to use long brass rods for fitups before I use the finished scales or tools. All the Vic parts in this picture are all from my fit up parts and are ones that used solely for fitups. I dont use the same tools I will deliver on a custom so they remain in perfect condition until final assembly. (Image removed from quote.)The springs and liners are the only finished part I am making at this stage. Here is what the back looks like before I work on the springs. Notice the custom spring I make is not finished at this stage. It actually sits proud of the other springs and I grind it flush and then finish all springs at that time.(Image removed from quote.)The result is a nice uniform looking back, with my custom spring blending right into the stock springs. I polish them all the same along with the liners for a high end fit and finish.(Image removed from quote.)Understandably I get alot of people asking to buy springs from me for the scissors layer, but I dont sell them since they arent ready to use as is. I finish them as part of the build, so that is why they are not a ready to go part.Here is the big blue monster all finished up.(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)Cheers!
Pioneer + wood saw configuration! Why hasn't Vic thought of this one! (Image removed from quote.)

That is about as close to a perfect tool layout in a SAK I could ask for. Could you PM me what that would cost me just for future reference.
Nice to see the technique.Doesn't it work out cheaper to buy them though, factoring in your time etc? For example:http://www.seastrom-mfg.com/washerresults.aspx?pl=round+flat+washers&pc=washers,+flat+round&qs=5720&sp=wb_getallwasherdetailsbylinecatpnp&ct=5720:++Phosphor+Bronze+Round+Flat+Washer
Some sort of rack to hold parts while you dip them.
Any guesses as to what the hell im making with a potato masher and zip ties? (Image removed from quote.)
I have been giving the USPS a big thumbs up so far, since over the last 3 years of shipping out SAKs to the US, none gone lost or damaged... until last week! It looks like someone bloody stabbed the package, or swung a pickaxe? Is that standard USPS procedure? We like to take a few swings with a pickaxe into the mail just to see what happens....The customer was happy to swap scales himself to repair the problem so I shipped him out an new set of scales and he is happy. I guess I shouldn't complain about 1 damaged package in 3 yrs, but wtf...(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)
