Hello everybody, Bonkanon here. Today we'll be making a morning star from exotic African hardwoods.Most of the materials are in picrel. Wenge for the head and shaft (hehe), a piece of black-and-white ebony for the handle, and some African Blackwood for handle accents & pommel.
>>64749158I'm doing this on a wood lathe. I do have a metal lathe and a lot of metal shop experience so I could make turned metal fittings, but I'm specifically focusing on woodwork with these projects. The point is to get experience *out* of my comfort zone. I do agree with you that metal collars where the different woods join would look cool though. Something else I've been meaning to fool with is nice-looking thread wrapping, like you see on pool cues and fishing poles. That is incredibly strong too. I've used that method to reinforce tool handles but never tried to make it look nice. That could be a good solution to the issue mentioned in >>64730086
A Turks Head knot would be a simple addition.
>>64713236When I was a kid I used to have a shitty wooden morning star toy and I remember the wooden spikes on it were simply glued to the thing and they would fall off. I wonder how the original medieval morning stars had their spikes attached. Did they also screw it like you did? Or is it your original idea? Great thread btw.
>>64750215You could get fancy pants, and do a wire inset. Darker finished with a bit of brass speak to me
SUP /k/I know for a fact there are some LEO on here... I used to RP on SAMP with them, but aside from thatHOW DO YOU DEAL WITH /b/how does it affect your daily patrols?
>>64751604Everyone hates /b/ and /pol/
>>64751608You have to go back

Hey /k/, favor to ask. I have to run a quick errand, mind keeping an eye on this Horton Ho 229 for me? I'll be back in 30, 40 minutes tops. While I'm gone, don't you mess with my Horton ok? OK. Thanks.
>>64747845looks pretty modern. Is this another german fake weapon made up in some 50s sci fi book?
>>64748562Man,i just went to take a piss in the shop, not even 5 minutes, wtf?!
>>64748512I do
>>64749026>>64748489How'd you guys mess this up? Fuckfuckfuck, Anon is going to be back any minute.They didn't have any hortens at the store, but I found this. Just act cool and maybe he won't notice.
>>64747909ah hell nah my nigga just nutted from simply looking at some bitched :skullemoji:
Tanks are not obsolete they just haven't been updated.Abrams introduced- 45 years agoThe first ironclad to the first dreadnought was about 45 years in comparison.Roughly 45 years between the wright brothers plane and the introduction of combat jet aircraft.>fights in an area of eastern europe over the course of 5 years that was covered sometimes in a day in ww2>tanks are obsolete
>>64751799Cambrian ended, devonian starts.
>>64752090I guess you could call the red guard drones.
*Hits the crack pipe* Ok get this shit hear me out Tanks On Mars Bitchin'
>>64751843>>64751848Because the zoomers are right.From an asymmetric warfare perspective shitty hobby drones would be a hell of a Fuck You from whoever is using them. We didn't have to deal with the Taliban or the Iraqi militias using hobby drones with explosives duct taped to them dive bombing convoys with explosives. We had to deal with suicide bombers and IEDs, sure, or niggers dropping grenades from overpasses, but those you can somewhat mitigate with shaped hulls or by shooting the grenade dropper. An MATV can survive an IED because the whole damn thing is designed to survive a blast from below. Plus, those IEDs were stationary. It's a mine - you have to be the one to get close to it, not the other way around.Meanwhile you can see the fate of the MRAPs that went to Ukraine. Some nigger rigged drone with a duct taped RPG warhead crashes into the windshield. gg no re.>But muh vehicle mounted jammers on my MATV!That assumes they're only attacking the MATV and not the foot patrol. Maybe they fly their hobby drone over Kandahar AFB and drop a few mortars on the motor pool, only way more accurately this time.The "War" on Terror was such baby tier shit it can hardly even be called a war on our end. It was a failed occupation/nation building experiment. It's easy to beat the shit out of the local browns when all they had as a major ally was Iran or Pakistan and black market Khyber Pass reproductions.You tell me. What did we gain from going into Iraq? We didn't gain shit. Halliburton and KBR and all the other private contractors we paid to supply our bases made a fortune, but the average American shouldered the taxpayer burden of toppling Saddam. And we didn't even win in Afghanistan. I could understand revenge for 9/11, we did do that. We killed one of Mullah Omar's sons in an airstrike and killed a shitton of Taliban. Then we waste 20 years in a middle eastern shithole for no fucking reason and have to beg the same Taliban to not attack us as we leave.
>>64752692Only works against third worlders/Russians. Everyone else just jams you or is watching you from the skies.
Over the past century, technological changes have come about which would actually make the Ratte a viable platform.>miniaturization of nuclear reactors>miniaturization of nuclear warheads>lasers for defense against drones and missiles>improvements to computers for fire controlThere is no better time than now to build the Ratte.
>>64748081Realistically speaking so long as you have nuclear weapons or even something more devastating, the eternal argument ends with sword>shield. Consequentially being a fuckoff huge target would simply end poorly for you as missiles, typical artillery, or even nuclear landmines would mean more agile and attritable, not to mention pre-existant forces would remove you from the equation. Unless you address many or all of these factors its not really feasible enough people give the OK to dedicate the necessary engineering expertise to design this and then filter resources away from the front to arm and protect this thing.
I don't understand why Hitler, Dr. Porsche, and others continued to downplay the importance of the ability to recover, repair, and re-equip stranded AFVs. The only trailers I know of in Germany capable of carrying heavy tanks were a few examples used at test sites.
>>64739562Ah shit one of the seven people who played Haze escaped the museum again
>>64739401>10 billion nuclear megatank>cannot cross bridgesI'd buy one.

Why wouldn't something like pic related work fine as a "do everything" gun for a person living in the densely forested hills of Appalachia, where the power and ballistic advantage of a rifle simply isn't necessary?>plinking will be good fun with the naturally subsonic .45>definitely suitable for home defense>easy enough to fit in a backpack, or take the can off and carry it on your person>get some .45 Super for killing deer or hogs, or mess around with round ball loadings for taking small game or for pest controlYes, it's true that rifles can be had for dirt cheap these days. And it's also true that there is no real reason to limit yourself to just one gun, especially a handgun. But in an autistic min-max fantasy where you literally can only own one gun and it has to be able to be carried 24/7/365, does a suppressed .45 automatic make sense? The only real downside I see here is that this is not the best option for summertime concealed carry in hot climates.
>>64743991Also a good option if you're too poorfag for a five seven. Well done anon.
>>64751990Okay I know you are bullshitting. 5.7 absolutely does not penetrate better than normal pistol rounds and 5.7 is loud af. 5.7 is a good round, but I sure as hell would never use it as a woods gun unless the biggest thing you may run into is a stray shitbull.
>>64751990> it's quieter than anything else out there in cf except a 4.6Doubt. It’s a higher pressure bottleneck round. >penetrates better than basically all commercial pistol rounds aside from meme shitAgainst hard targets like mild steel, aluminum, or kevlar vests. Not against flesh. It’s too light and it’s wounding mechanism is upsetting and tumbling in flesh. That’s not conducive to penetration. Post your 5.7. I doubt you own one.
>>64747440This. Cans are not half as useful or cool as people make them out to be. They don't really add much to shooting after the hype wears off somewhere between a few range trips to a year. Even with subs you're loud enough anyone immediately nearby is going to identify a gunshot, or at least investigate, and any range or facility is still going to require you wear earpro, poa/poi shift on and off, etc.If your typical range trip is holster work, the can becomes a novelty almost immediately.

Think we'll ever get full body armor?
>>64752269Nylon is significantly stronger than cotton, more comparable to silk. Are you saying that Cotton armor is in any way comparable to Kevlar?
>>64751642How could you be so retarded and wrong in such a short post
>>64752473I am saying nylon armor is possible and obtainable for thirdies to manufacture.
>>64752636But Cotton is cheaper and we've seen quality products being swapped out by dogshit look-alikes before. Specifically by Russia.
>>64752445Nah, the issue is performance with no illum. I got a digital NV goggle like 4 years back and the thing is definitely usable with IR. Not justasgood as analog but fine for ground movement and even shooting. Digital NV has improved by a shit ton in the last few years. Only in the last year though have I seen digital NV coming out with no illum performance that wasn't completely and utterly unusable trash. It's still bad, but it's leaps and bounds better than "useless". The latency issues will be non existent by the time no illum performance is good enough for them to be a reasonable competitor to analog.
can you even call yourself a /k/ommando?
>>64752314and you don't own anything so why listen to anything you say?
>>64752316I guess that makes you the.... owner of a lonely heart
>>64752334Much better than a owner of a broken heart, honestly.
>>64743144like you?
>>64749819Is this even worth watching?It's got some shitty ratings.

>>64749036This has to do with the Jeets to buy Miggers 29 instead. Not to mention, India had to face F-16 from 2 fronts, and back then the Indian market just had opened for the US so, they had to keep jeet requests.

>>64731789That one always makes me laugh>hate Russia for stealing land>hate Israel for stealing land
>>64752380That was probably a factor but, I think it was more to do with money. The ambassador vaguely alluded it in his interview and the Miggers were partially grounded from 2002 to 2011 because of budgetary constraints. One of Hasina's whistle-blowers also mentioned that one of her major campaign contributors made a lot of money skimming money off the top. I think Hasina wanted an easy pay day and decided buying fighter jets was the easiest way she could justify it to parliament

In light of recent Venezuelan events, Commando is now much closer to reality than it used to be.
>>64749583You might not accept it, but this is a better WW2 movie than Saving Private Ryan.

>>64750981I thought about it but I already have a Pe90 and bought an FAL and Pe57 parts kit. I just didn't think it was worth it without receivers, mags, and parts being readily available.
Anyone here mess with railed dust covers? I have no siderail and must scream
>>64752599Yeah
>>64752599>I have no siderail and must screamWhy not use a Master mount? Seems like the easiest solution.

Out of curiosity could you load modern 9mm into an MP40 without it blowing up or jamming up in the case of HP/SP ammo? It'd be pretty neat to load modern self defense rounds into a WW2 submachine gun, imagine a future doctor breaking into your house at 3am only to catch a burst from a fucking MP40 to tge chest.

Why is French firearm design so strange?
>>64751965but they made the shadow moses gun
>>64746595Oh god, you're having a stroke, I'm sorry.
>>64723278Nothing says "we're not serious about going to war" like a battle rifle in the 70's.
>>64752422https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_France#French_Fifth_Republic_(1958%E2%80%93present)
>>64752422So the entire western world wasn't serious about war? Sounds like a load of commie gobbledygook >B-but the m16M14 was still in service in the 70s, just not as a mainstream issued weapon
