Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
I have tons of graphite blocks, plates, paddles, and odd shapes. I can get more and my buddy seemed semi willing to machine possibly (dont get hopes to high.)
I personally will hand make quality tools upon request, Ill get a picture of the sets we use in my shop, but since they are hand made i don't stock them or make them unless someone asks.
help me raise $$$1600 for a pm2d and ill show you some love on prices :bouncy:
since there are so many id prefer to not have to measure and price each individually, so if mods can let not pricing up front slide, I was thinking people can give me dimensions and I will respond with what i have to fit and prices per piece.
feel free to pm me with any requests on sizes, shapes, tools, donations (haha)
thanks for looking, happy torchin!

Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
I thought I was getting a line tool from you? What up? If you need funds my money has been waiting for a while. In fact I prob would have picked one up somewhere else if I had not been so stoked on a custom tool from the ganja crew. Hook it up. I wanna use one before I decide to line encase or draw then sleeve.

Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
Damn that a lot of graphite. How's the quality?

Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
Nice, please bring some up to g.l.a.s.s. id love to get some from you.
Doood, you need a new kiln before a new torch, lol
Have you used a pm2d before? I ask cause imo that torch is good for some stuff (nice huge bushy flame) but all around not one Id use reg in my shop. Big downs is the poor centerfire. Go with a mirage or cc+
oh hell what am I saying, buy the fucking torch and rage it yourself, if you dont like it sell it.
after all thats exactly what i did. Just be prepared to buy a few pairs of kevlar sleevs, yer gonna need em.
We can talk more at g.l.a.s.s. im stoked!

Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
Sorry about that bilbo! I did start on it, sickness and injury got me off track, I'll finish it ASAP! Hopefully today or tomorrow, I'll send progress pics if you like. Just lmk
Quality is top notch! Seriously! I used a piece as a kiln shelf for a month or so every day, very dense.
Also I've used the stuff I get side by side with the stuff from eBay and it's on par or better, mine seems to scratch less.
Will do coal! And no I've never used any Beth, I'm totally in love with my Sargent (with lines swapped to be like a cc of course.). I wanted it to compare and for the firepower too, also was looking forward to a surface mix center. Dude i can't wait for g.l.a.s.s.!!!!!!
PS I welded on a pretty sweet softbrick garage door after getting super pissed trying to work sick and with a gnarly back. It's hinged and solid and everything! Kiln build is coming up though, firebrick place is down 43 blocks :)

Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
Im lookin for a large l marver just to keep in front of torch on the bench.
A guy I work for wouldnt trade his beth pm2d for the world, its a VERY capable torch (he says its tough to do little pipes on, cant really narrow the flame much)
Not to get off track, can you explain the line swapping?

Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
how much would you want for the 6 square blocks in the top right corner in the second pic..?
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
I'd like a marver i_____i like that if you can make one out of a big block
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
@HPIAdam...if you can give me dimensions should be no problem up to around 18inches.
for the sargent its something i learned here, the outer oxygen and gas valves are switched from how a cc's are. if you switch your valves it will run tighter, more oxidizing, just like a cc. (or switch just the lines to see first itll still work)
@1UP....$75?
@3rdI....its in the first picture sticking up in the middle, and it can be seen from above in the last 2 pictures, second row down and in the middle (middle right is what you want, the one next to it is just an L)
Not sure on a price $70?
Thanks for the interest everyone! the prices im giving obviously arent rock solid so if they seem high or low someone let me know!
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
how much an # can you toss some in a flat rate box for me?
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
@Kevin....If shipping is paid for in the price or by the buyer I have no problems shipping however you prefer. I haven't worked out a price per pound, but that seems to be a fit way to go. If you have bought by the pound what did you pay? If you can let me know or give me the sizes shapes you are most interested in, I'll get it out ASAP.
Bilbo, your line tool is shaped, I think it's gonna work in 50x5 I had an apprentice do the final groves so hopefully no tweaks need to be made! Plan was try for 50 if it's too loose shave it for 44
Just another reminder to everyone, I'm guessing on prices going off 1. ABR's graphite prices 2. eBay guy's prices 3. How rare I feel the requested piece(s) seem
Please! Give me feedback on the prices, if it's good gimme a hell yea and if not tell me im ripping ya off! Hopefully I'll be able to get a better grasp on what graphites worth to people quickly, I really am trying to be fair, leaning towards the phat hookups side!

Not like that all. From the sounds of it, he had plenty, so I wanted to get a dibs in since I'll be seeing him in a few weeks. If it had been the only stuff, and you had requested it, it would terribly rude of me to try to steal your sale, and would expect that the sale should go to you.

Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
Oh yes graphite for all!
I got a list of all the plates that people have been asking for to my graphite guy, I have mostly inch thick or thicker right now, but have gotten mostly requests for thinner.
If everyone who asked for the 1/4-3/4 thick stuff could please hang tight, my guy said he would start cutting tonight, he should be done in no more than a week! I apologize for the wait! Please pm me if you wanna talk to me about a thicker one if you absolutely cant wait. I will check back and PM everyone whos waiting when I get the new plates.
Pictures of new graphite, i have a few of the really big one.
The engraved slab is a one off done by hand by a friend, any interest in that? I have no idea what its worth. He may do more like it if asked, not sure.
Tools pictures....for example of what tools we make, these are handmade and our personal sets that get used everyday.
I also took pictures for those of you that have asked for stuff, lots of pictures with dimensions, if you want these please give me an email to send them to, i really really dont want to post them all....I know I got the H marver, 1Up's blocks (i hope i didnt scare him away with that price, i went way over), all the flat stuff i have, 10x10 and 12x12 of the 1 inch stuff, a 1 piece l marver block...
Running this sale is a bitch! please be patient and remind me if i forget anything, im working several labor jobs and (not) blowing glass and trying to manage selling all this, its nuts!

Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
As of now i do believe i have pm'd or responded to everyone somehow, if i left anyone hanging let me know.
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
I figured he had plenty from the post and pictures I was just giving ya a little razzing...I've seen your post Icarus on here and know you wouldn't have cut line...hence the LOL :D The folks on here have been really cool to me and to each other in large. I love this website!! :bouncy:
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
Update, not seeming like I am getting 1/4" plate, he was supposed to bring some already and he brought more of what I have, I'd say at this point I'll look for a bandsaw and make em myself. Offers are welcome.
I'm shipping everything tyats paid for today, I think it's just the one tool set.

Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!

-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
You should step up and get a vendor badge you make a full line of tools and Customs. And have a source for more graphite.
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
I thought I responded this morning, I did it from my girl's computer so maybe I screwed up. I'll double check at the end of today when I get home and make sure I get that pm back to you .
Tools are no prob I'll work em out over the next few days....details and such in that pm so give me till the end of the day to send that back.
I've been thinking about doing this full time for a while now, but it's a tough transition doing so...need to get my own computer running again here, I've been doing this mostly by iPhone
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
Double checked, I never got a pm from you sly (response was to WcG for something close to what you asked)
Anyways I'll get to work on em today....anyone asking for 12x12 the biggest I have is just shy of 12 wide, but they are all more than 12" long and 1.5" or thicker.
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
Ganja, you ever finish the line tool? Status update would really hook me up.
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
I'm interested in a 12x12ish one pm me...
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
Losiwells, it's telling me I cant pm you, you either chose not to recieve or aren't allowed according to what popped up.
Bilbo I've been working flipping a house, as well as glass and graphite, I have been doing the easy graphite like plates and l marvers just because of time issues. I do have several blanks started for the base and a main dowel set aside.
As of right now I'm mostly caught up with the easy ones, tomorrow/tonight I will work on finishing yours.

Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
I'm in need of some flat 1/2" stock... I'm pretty sure everything you have is thicker, but I thought I'd ask anyways.
-
Re: Lots of Graphite for Sale! Help me raise torch funds!
I think I got some, is there a minimum area you need?
