Thanks Addo...i to make do with whatever I have around me instead of buying specific materials where possible. The knife before this had the pins from a door hinge as scale pins...

thats simply stunning!! i love that...thanks for sharing...

yeah id go for territorial...dogs will urinate on anything to mark territory, hump another male dog to show dominance, and in the cse of my little bundle of fun, drop a perfectly formed little present onto the mother in laws pillow...almost like a chocolate on your pillow that some hotels leave...

that looks great man...

thanks for the info there ged...that made for some good reading. I think we need to look at the bigger picture too. So yesterday, wind power produced 7% of our total power consumed. In just a few years time, especially with the 6MW direct-drive turbines in production, that figure could easily...

thanks lee!! thats quality mate...i'll give you a shout :)

i'll have one too if there are any going? would you like to specify the charity?? so thats... Shewie Gsfgaz x2 Beenn Dave53 Southey Barn Owl PaulSanderson.

yup...you only have to look at the Siemens manufacturing plant which is opening near Hull. The industry is in its infancy, and key players realise it costs too much to import from the Danish and other such nations who for so long have led the way. Techniques such as integraBlade were...

fair point Barn Owl, I dont even know why i dropped the point on this. I often think drop points look more 'tactical', so totally against what a scandi should look like (IMO)...needless to say the next one will NOT be a drop point.

ha ha thanks mate!! i like it too...and it didnt cost the earth to make...gotta love recycling...

cheers Dave, the bolster is made from copper, black scrap leather and an alloy of 75% copper and 25% nickel that were kicking around the house. There will be more, as well as some bone, in the next handle...

You dont seem to know what youre talking about and I get the impression your just spouting something you have heard elsewhere without any facts to back up your rather blinkered outburst. And as for costing millions of pounds, each turbine costs less than £1million...and thats for offshore...

Hi everyone... ...I have recently just finished my first scandi, and thought I would document its birth. Please excuse the terrible photo quality as they were taken on my phone. It's not the first blade I have made, but to be honest it has probably been the most enjoyable. It started of as a...

some great work their Doc...the blade is a lovely shape too...

thats quality!! what a great idea...

deck - the army surplus shop near the Belgian Monk in the city had them in about a month ago. dont know if theyre still there...hope it helps...

looks cracking that dude. having watched this bod boy develop i must admit i never expected it to look so damn good!! impressive work from both a blade and scale point of view. What grit did you go down to on the scales mate?

ha ha good call...i DID mean 3.0MW :lmao: it would have been even better if it was from a 3.0mW turbine though!! something to aspire too!!

i'll throw this into the mix too... http://www.bwea.com/edu/calcs.html :)

check his link out...great site. has me looking at what I can sell to fund one!! haha
