Posted on February 5, 2013 by ehurst

I learned how to sharpen a green wood saw blade. A few months ago I stumbled across a huge 30-inch (76cm) bow saw; I didn’t know they made them that large. So I grabbed it for just a few dollars … Continue reading →

Posted on December 20, 2012 by ehurst

I had forgotten how sharp an old “safety razor” could be. I also forgot how much they hurt. The blades are very cheap, if you can find them. I found a copy of Corel WordPerfect Office X5 Standard someone had … Continue reading →

The Prophetic Pen

Posted on October 23, 2012 by ehurst
