Not too bad, still needs some work on the pins and polishing



Comes with my classic Sparky lopsided scales  :D





I better ask Steve if it is a barlow as it only has the one lambs foot blade  :think:

BTW Tony, by complete accident I found out about a source of thin brass plate........it's sold as "shim stock" in various thicknesses!  :rofl:

Bit in the expensive side, but my buddy with the engineering shop needs to get some, and I can buy from him.......maybe, hopefully 2018 will be the year of my first folder.

The bolster is inspirational considering the big bar of brass I recently bought  :salute: :salute:

Thanks Steve (I'm still blaming you though  :) )

Gerhard thanks Mate,
the trouble I find when I'm using brass is you get it looking nice, turn your back on it and scratches instantly appear   :ahhh     

A better shot, still needs more bleaching and polishing

I know exactly what you mean......isn't that part of the charm?  :rofl:

Copper is even worse, but I saw in a Man At Arms video how they turned copper red by quenching in a Borax solution.....I'm gagging to try that  :gimme:
