I'm not really making this, more like assembling and finishing. I've had this for a while and an just getting around to putting it together. It's a patch knife kit that I got off of eBay a while back. The instructions call for a drill press but I'm working with hand tools.

There's some 'making' to that, HB. Let's see!

I got the handles roughed out.

Drilling the holes.

Before you rivet them, I could send you moose leg bones that you could use for scales.

Paul

Go ahead and send them and I'll use them for the next one. I have these epoxied in place and curing.

OK.

What does a patch knife patch?

It's for cutting patches for a muzzle loader.

In this video he uses a patch knife.

Did you get the 2' of snow they said you were going to get on the national weather report?

Paul

We have about 4 inches on the ground at my house. It was warm enough leading up to the storm that most of it melted when it hit the ground. The southern part of the city got a lot more than us. But it's a heavy wet snow with a lot of water content.

I wish I could get some of that!

Snow? Water? Moose bones?
