Hello guys, asking for help. Recently became disabled, double leg amputee. I'm wanting to start a business. But recently lost my entire collection . My passion i would like to pursue. Is making wood canes and sharpening/refurbishing knives. and other blades by hand. As well as learning jewelry making, leather working and engraving. If anyone has any old stones or blades or tools. That they would be willing to donate. I would be extremely thankful. Not looking for a handout but a hand up. As we say in Texas.
...to The Shave Den family! Be sure to stop by The Shave Den "Master Sticky" thread to familiarize yourself with the rules and different areas of The Shave Den!
Hello Aaron and welcome to TSD. You'll find the members here very generous, but they may wish to get to know you a bit better, before they start sending you things. Post your shaves, ask shaving-related questions, in other words, become a member of the community first.
Welcome @Aaron Mayer from here in western NY. Glad you decided to join us here at TSD. From the sounds of it, you're not afraid of work and you'll do very well.
Welcome aboard!! As mentioned, shaving is the name of the game here, although other games and shenanigans have been known to take place. Sounds like www.allaboutpocketknives.com would be more up your alley. There they talk knives of all sorts, sharpening, even talk about carving and walking sticks. Check 'em out. Great bunch of folks over there.
I hesitate to say this, but.... walking into a social club as a new member and then soliciting donations is probably not the best way to start off.
He just cut to the chase. Didn't want to waste any time trying to find out if TSD was a viable route for him. I didn't sense any rudeness, so I say no harm, no foul. But that's me.
