Thank you sir! I’ve been making slip joints for a couple years now as well as fixed blades , however I’ve never saw this layout method ! I am definitely going to utilize it . Can you tell me what you use to adhere your liner material to the 123 block ? cA glue ? Tape ?
I bought the same book a few years back,and i am just getting aroind to making a slip joint. The issue i currently have is its not zero in the half stop, its at zero open and closed,so i guess my measurments are off,any thoughts. Davy
Not sure if your blade is under tension or not. Your half stop and closed positions should be set using the open position as the master zero. If not under tension leave the half and closed positions 7-8 thousands over size. Once under tension the half and closed will change. Then very slowly (little by very little) adjust the half and the closed to match the open zero. If you over shoot one and it now is lower than the open, you will need to slightly lower your back square to reset you open position and then you can start the process of timing the half stop and closed positions to be zero again.
Thank you. I truly understand now
You’re welcome

Hi buddy
Yes it’s under tension in a rise & fall indicator aka Ruble gauge.
Thanks I will have another go at it.
