I was thinking about a fast way to add a scissors rest to solo springs and came up with this:




I used a thick dremel cutting wheel to create the slot and then hammered two thin 1.5 brass pins in (one from each side). Sand to perfect length and you're done. :D

Looks good, I might try that with my next transplant. Maybe use a piece of sheet rather than two pins?

If you have it ready, why not?
I like the fact that the blade centers in the little groove formed by the two pins though.

I always wanted to try and add a backtool to a 84mm Alox knife, especially an awl. I used the spring and the tools of a 84mm Climber. The awl sits in the opener layer.

Is there a hidden 4th pin to locate the opener layer spring?

Nice job!  I started to make one ages ago, I even made the back side cutout before anodizing.. Then when I went to drill the hidden holes on the inside, I drilled right through the bloody scale.   :facepalm:

I wouldnt mind converting a small tinker to alox sometime though.  The standard silver scales you could do the cutout on without much notice of the bare Al showing.

I drilled small holes on the insides of the scales for the floating pin, but I found that using cellidor model aluminum liners with holes for the 4th pin (instead of the nickel silver ones with the notch) hold the pin nicely. With these liners you can sand the pin flush with the spring on both sides and don't need to drill into the scale at all.

Ah! Good idea. I could do that trick for the 91mm mods too.   :tu:
