Hello Folks,
I’m just starting to dabble into making slipjoint knives and I’m having an incredibly difficult time trying to source .005” thick, 1/32” ID bronze washers. I can find them with 1/8” ID, but I really would like to use 1/32” as my pivot.
I’m willing to make my own, I just need some direction on sourcing the correct shim stock and recommendations for a decent stamp and die set?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bobby
