Good Morning - I think?!

Just had a phone call from a past customer, wants 8 Lockback Folders by the 15th. Pray hard for me, I will be in the shop 24/7 until I get them done. Thank the good Lord I made extra Damascus when I last ran a billet. I hate multiple orders:(. Hardest thing is to make multiples of anything and have them all look exactly the same. Since everything I do is by hand with no CNC. I really needed this right now, it will help with some of the medical bills that have been backing up.

Well - I am in for the night. I got all the liners roughed out and half of the bolsters formed today. Tomorrow I will hopefully get the rest of the bolsters formed and the liners finished and drilled, then silver solder on the bolsters and drill them. Wednesday I plan to make the rocker bars and start on the springs. Thursday the Good Lord willing I will start on the blades. Did you know that there are 17 separate pieces for each Lockback Folder? Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers. I will post a pic when the bunch are done.
