It is extremely important for men to emphasize their individuality under any circumstances, even with meals. Therefore, the original men's set of picnic cutlery will be a really good and useful gift for them.
The male set itself is small - a fork and a knife, which are made of very high quality steel (stainless steel). But it looks stylish, original and will be indispensable for a picnic, camping, hunting or fishing.
To make such a set, the first thing you need is a suitable blank. In this case, the master uses a piece of stainless steel plate with a thickness of about 0.8-10 mm. It is possible to take a workpiece of smaller thickness (simply, the more powerful, the more solid).
The main stages of work
Using a permanent marker (which cannot be erased by hand), the master draws the contours of the fork and knife on the surface of the workpiece. Then he cuts the plate in half, with a grinder cuts the contours of the knife and fork.
The next stage of work is the grinding of workpieces. Without a manual grinder or belt grinder in this case can not do. The master forms the slopes on the knife and grinds the metal on the teeth of the fork.
It is also necessary to process the edges, ends and the plane of the workpieces. The process is not the fastest, but the result is worth it.
Then the master applies a textured pattern to the surface of the workpieces and pickles a knife with a fork in a jar of ferric chloride. After the chemical process, the remaining perchloric acid in the soda solution must be neutralized.
