  1. Hi, Emma! Welcome to the Forum!
  2. I like 'em all! Well done, Dan!
  3. Very nice, Bruce!
  4. Is this Peter "John 3:16" Hennessy from years of Prorodeo Sports News ads? If so, man it's great to see you!
  5. Well, there goes some more of that Artisan customer service. These folks rock. Seriously.
  6. Welcome to the Forum!
  7. That's the first thing that came to mind. Get a Foodsaver and vac-seal that thing.
  8. I can kind of relate to Elton's take on rope building. It's a tough item to make--real hard on the hands if done right. The market for them has shrunk a bunch, too. On top of that, I've had makers tell me it's real tough to find decent poly anymore. Except for a few custom makers--Jess Gorley (spins his own rope), Raymond Branch, Dane Livingston, etc., most of the ropes made today are built in Mexico. I think Neal Barstow and his crew still braid in-house, but the rest of the mass-producers go South of the border. There are a few more exceptions, but the Brazilian-style has also come into the mix. I haven't built a rope in a couple of years now. And, I haven't missed it. Not even for a minute.

  16. Dang, Randy! You're holdin' back on us! Boots looks good. That's way beyond my skill level.
  17. Beautiful work, Kim! Welcome to the Forum!
  18. Have to agree with Dan. Gotta have some photos...
  19. Nice job, Ed! Very well done.
  20. As a Toro owner, I'd have to agree with Dave. Of course, I've been the beneficiary of Artisan's customer service for some three years now. Personally, I have no issue with someone bragging on their new machine. That's human nature. But, you open the door to counter-response when you take a virtually unknown brand and put it up beside Artisan, which is an institution in this business. In short, Artisan has YEARS of consistently being there for the customer. In fact, I know of many instances where they've assisted folks with machines made by other manufacturers. That's not just good, that's damn good. The only machines I recommend are Artisan. I don't see that changing.
  21. I have to agree with Art. Awesome work, David.
  22. Bruce, Website looks great!
