Chuck, reminds me of this photo: Most of my skunk encounters have involved skunks and dogs that didn't know any better... I can report the Skunk Remedy (hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and a little dish soap) works REALLY well...and that some dogs just DO NOT LEARN! The one house we were renting, we had a backyard neighbour with a skunk nest under the porch. The neighbour had decided to just let them be. Twice while we were living there, one of the young ones fell into our window well. Our dog alerted us to it, and fortunately we noticed before anything bad happened to her! (I'm sure the skunk was reluctant to spray when it was in a confined space, too.) We tried (very carefully) putting a 2x4 down into the window well, but the youngster couldn't get a good grip on it. Then, we thought of an old piece of carpet we had somewhere, and didn't want anymore. That did the trick, though the skunk did spray just a tiny bit while I was putting the carpet into the well. Fortunately, the smell didn't last, as it wasn't a full blast! yup i;ve been there just set and watch the little bugger. They give you a glance every once in a while like "What?" second night about 3 in the morning i hear him rooting around in my lodge, I hit my flashlight and it blinded him so he's runnin around looking for the way out which isnt easy in a round tent with a small opening and two layers of canvas lol. I'm peeking out from under my fart sack yelling and carrying on trying to get him out without getting sprayed, covering my head up every time he made a lap around my bag. My friend hears the commotion in his tent and starts to come over so there i am yelling at him now not to come in the skunks back. I hear silence then " well what the he** you want me to do about that? Then this muffled type laughing, i could hear him out there trying to stifle himself to no avail. All the while this skunk is roaming around and about ten minutes later he finally finds the door. Man did i get the shit in the morning, every skunk joke you could imagine, and most of them stunk lol.. My dog got hit last year in our front yard yes that recipe works pretty darn good. i have some on hand now. Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms. “I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on. I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” THE DUKE!

Chuck, reminds me of this photo I'd love to put a thought bubble above that dogs head with a few expletives in it. I can't say what they are but one starts with the letter ' C ' . Gladly we don't have those here in Oz, but after reading yours & Chucks experiences, my respect for those smelly critters has increased.

I've not heard that one before hey set your messenger to recieve messages lol i tried to send this to you. PS not a joke Hey Fred i just had to have you check this out. i gather you and your kids are archers from previous posts so i had to show this jig to you. It is for making arrow shafts.. I don't how far you folks go into making your own arrows but i have for years but i always had to buy my shafts which are now really expensive over here. I found this jig on the net while lurking around. I made one and it works like a charm once you get it adjusted. I made a dozen shafts in 30 minutes from a douglas fir 2"x4' costing 4 bucks lol. I'm friggin ecstatic lol. I figured it was just as easy showing you the original thread instead of taking pics of my messy garage. Anyway here it is, i'm going outside to shoot lol. http://www.primitivearcher.com/smf/index.php/topic,44952.0.html Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms. “I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on.

Contributing Member fredk Posted May 16, 2023 Author Contributing Member Report Posted May 16, 2023 Interesting, thanks, But the cost of machinery and getting good proper wood outweighs the minimal cost I pay for proper weighted shafts Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..

Douglas fir is one of many proper arrow woods over here what do you folks use? Oh man i just realized while writing i can make footed arrows now too cant wait to try that. My next build, if life stays on track, is going to be a take down recurve always wanted one never could afford one, still cant lol.
