  1. Both types of oak grow native in America . The rounded "white" type oak was here when the pilgrims landed in 1620 Native Americans in New England planted by the stages of leaf development of the white oak.
  2. Many americans are unhappy with the president.

    I DO Exist!!

    I was wondering what you had planned for this piece. Looks really nice.
  16. if you drop the last ")" it is the correct adress
  17. Thanks I will give thos ea try and see how they work out. It will only be sketches for now I pulled a tendon in my form arm and any real work is off limits for a while.
  18. A young man from my first Cub scout den (11 years ago) just made Eagle Scout and I want to make him a wallet. He is very proud of his Scottish ancestory so I thought either The Lion or thistle would be nice. I sketched out a few thistles but my wife thinks they are too "Girly" and the lions I have found on line are small with a lot of fine detail. Can any one help?
  19. Fairy silhouettes http://www.istockphoto.com/file_closeup/ob....php?id=3905713 Fairy Stencils http://www.spraypaintstencils.com/fantasys...encilindex.html http://www.justscrapping.co.nz/cgi-bin/cra...;keywords=fairy http://www.naturalexpressions.org/AirBrush...d_Stencils.html http://www.stencilsource.com/s_children_1.html
  20. I love the venus meets sheridan!
  21. The 16 is good but take a look at your local sporting shops and see what they carry for 16 Ga. shells if they don't carry the shells you want I would suggest keep looking for a 20.
  22. I like the leaf pattern nice work.
  23. Well hows about skinned and tanned.
  24. I dont know about on a jacket but I painted a flame scheme on a tool pouch that has been caught in many rainstorms, about 3 years, and about 10,000 miles. The only thing is the leather is stiff and doesn't see a lot of flexing. The paint I used was just plain old acrylic paint from the craft store apple or apple barrel brand.
  25. If you want to store in a tube you might be able to get some shipping tubes from the mailroom or receiving dept. We get a lot of tubing and threaded rod in 3 or 4 inch heavy cardboard tubes with removable caps that would probably work well and might be something that would just end up in the trash.
