  5. Thanks !! They are just coming out here, saw the first one yesterday.
  6. thanks lol great story!! Sounds like she could fit in here in Wyoming too. thanks!!
  7. Thank you! Hoes work!! My weapon of choice is a long handled spade shovel. I don't take every snake i see, in fact passed one up yesterday. I usually only take them where they my be a danger to people or their animals.
  8. Its amazing how they blend in with grass. thank you. Yea its one season hat I'm thinking at best. thanks Pastor.
  9. Oh man what a thing to happen, i pulled the same mistake on an intake one time but i had to pull it back off lol. hopefully yours will end up in the radiator hose. I had a great couple of days we went fishing again lol, didn't catch anything but one small Walleye, and my son took a couple of Carp with his bow. Now the work starts again lol tilling and planting our little garden. The worst day fishing is always better than the best day working.

  15. thanks, it really looks nice on my black felt. Thanks.
  16. Got my new summer hat figured i'd make a nice band for it. Prairie Rattler, locally sourced and ethically dispatched.
  17. We could use a good stamping thread where everyone can show the different ways to use them.
  18. Holy cow I'll bet you had fun for a minute. i converted a Coleman white gas lantern to kerosene once with a similar outcome lol. Had to buy a new globe after i tossed it out the door on fire. That oil has to get hot before it vaporizes well. Its too bad your so far away i have a wood lathe and enough metal working tools to build anything you would need for a bellows. I think i even have plans for a bellows in one of my foxfire books. Man I've got so many projects that I don't know where to start, bad thing is I don't really want to start lol fishing sounds more fun.
  19. lol i asked a master carpenter once what the dif was between him and an apprentice. " i know how to hide my F*#k ups!!" was his answer. I spent 30 years doing it and never got the chance to get licensed working for the state. We did have licensed people once in a while i learned from an old master plumber from "Philly" We used hot water heat from three 750 hp coal fired boilers that traveled the prison in every thing up to 5" copper, miles of it all in tunnels underground pumped by dozens of pumps of every size you can imagine. About 50 air handling units run by Johnson controls pneumatics. it was a plumbers night mare and an hvac techs worst fears. On top of the industrial plumbing we had three wardens homes to maintain as well but all had hot water heat so my residential furnace knowledge is limited though i have done some tin work. I sure will bend your ear though my friend I don't know everything thank you for the offer.
  20. that seems awful steep of a price. Blacksmith bellows probably have had a rough life to begin with not to mention few were probably saved in any shape, But as antiques go on the market i couldn't estimate the actual worth of one as a collectable. If its been hanging there for any length of time i would ask about it, give it a real good going over like your an expert, take notes and such lol then give a fair offer for it. Once all the damage has been pointed out they may drop their price. As for rebuilding one now that would be a fun project to jump on. From what little i have read most of the metal parts can be hand made so no real problem replacing those.
  21. You never quit impressing. Friggin cool shoes!!
  22. and custom made to fit what ever you want in it, Nice work my friend.
