du wot?

 

If you have good, dry firewood it doesn’t really need to be sharp.

the occasional knotty pieces of wood suck but oh well.

 

Jesus how much do you need to grind to get an edge

Angle grinder and flap disks are all i use on my machetes and axes and it fuckin works

 

I fuck them up too often to care that much, sorry

 

Aim better

 

i fuck them up because my hand eye coordination and equilibrium is shit

My ears fill themselves with wax and when i find it hard to ballance i go to the doctor to get it all sucked out, q tips make it worse

i need to try those candles ive heard about

 

My 80 axle bolted up just fine and works great with the stock brake system . I have seen a few pictures online of people making adjustable lspv arms.

 

Whatever you do in life, never ever aspire to be a welder.

@Running Board Man I hope you have a backup plan.


My body hurts.

Hmmmm, maybe I should not be lazy and weld a mount for the LSPV arm onto my new axle then

 

also, the beer is back in the beer fridge at work. Hallelujah

 

don't cut yourself on all that edge

go get some pro help. No judgement here

 

how do you sharpen them? I need to do my hatchets and axes


I have a knife set that works great on my pocket knives and hunting knives

@cruiserguy on my way back my phone buzzes...this small area at 3300ft gives me a tiny bit of reception





Taking a nice little 6hr round trip drive; just wanted a spot to enjoy lunch at.

 

I file my Axes
Can Fillet fish
Not supposed to be that sharp though
I used to wood shingle historic buildings in Colonial Williamsburg that required rounded end and triangular end shingles

 

already tried that stuff long time ago

 

I hone block planes and chisels after hollow grinding to remove burrs but Axes should be filed to a double angle like a splitting wedge.
Fun fact
Colonial Williamsburg has large service tunnels with service elevators, dumb waiters and Commercial kitchens under ground
Kinda like Disneyland but on a smaller scale.

 

The FS made us use a file on the fire axes
