When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.

Didn't tear it - burned it with the angle grinder.
I've set myself on fire before!

Show off!

It's good to see this Karl and for those who are setting up their equipment, this is priceless. Nice press.

I can tell you how to make a San Mai billet in about four sentences.
Three pieces of steel - one core and two sides of stainless.
1/4" stainless and about .300" core.
Clean mating surfaces.
Tack weld billet.
Wrap in Stainless foil to eliminate air.
Soak at welding temp for 19.5 minutes.
Plop billet on large flat dies and set.
Repeat.
Done.
8 sentences.

Dana, don't forget, these are not "How To" videos!
They're "Who is" videos. I'm not trying to show how I make anything, I'm just showing "why" I do things the way I do.
If a person can learn something along the way, then that's great.
I can't, quite honestly, show why I do things or the philosophy behind them, if I don't at least show how I do some things along the way.
But the focus is more on "who" and "why", than "how".

Ha!  Another example of "simple" SERIOUSLY understated   :) .  Just joking, Karl-I appreciate anyone who worked at stainless San Mai for a few years sharing his hard earned techniques.  Great videos, too.

Dana, it's my "Play list" on You Tube and I may be the only one to have access to it - I don't know.
I thought I had it configured for "Public".
Just thought it might be nice to have all the videos accessible in one place.
