Yeah man, that was a pretty crazy time here

I'm wanting to do a bolster of some kind of wood ( probably some kind of burl, redwood maybe, or walnut) and sheep horn for the rest. Kind of like this bk17 I did awhile back



Trick is finding a piece of horn 1.7 inches wide by 5+ long to fit

I don't remember the board being torn apart. i do remeber a few bullheaded folks. one of them I liked that just couldn't accept that people have different opinions. The way that was handled here was one of the reasons I stuck around.

i just started to avoid those recent posts like I had avoided those tt reg posts. i know the intent meant well but I prefer to see an approach that inspires rather than agitates.

if somebody only wants to tell me about all the negative things in the world I have to wonder why that's what they want to talk about. eventually they become the message instead of just being thee messenger. that's why I usually laugh a lot while watching the news. but it's does make me sad that some don't have the filters to sort through this nonsense. and now instead of being proactive there have a lot of reactive efforts that completely miss the mark in my opinion.

So on to a topic that it near and dear to most of us.

We need some new steel!

Too quiet aroung here. I think I hear the crickets coming back.

Hey dogs, wassup?

Hey Skunk. I think the dogs are nappin.

I feel like I could be. I am beat.

I've sort of been MIA the last couple days. Had to put Patty in the hospital about 0600 Monday morning. She has the Flu (yup, the shot she had seems to not have worked) and Pneumonia in both lungs. The doctor says she MIGHT get to come home Thursday.

Just heard on FB. Sorry to hear that randy please pass onto patty that she is in my thoughts and prayers

Will do Mike and thank you. She's having a rough time of it.
