Knees are not good to get messed up. Hope i…[Read more]

Warmer this morning. Started off at 11º and expected to go to 24 with sun. Bring it on!

Doobie wrote:Ooops…just got some more. I already have this set. I basically really wanted it for the batteries. At $109 it was too good to pass up. This one was from A.ca

You really can’t have too many batteries, can you? Good deal!

Popular choice, Greg. I hope you enjoy.

Looks easy to make. The hard part is sourcing the leather.

Leather can usually be sourced at craft stores but at a higher price. A harness shop or shoemaker is the best bet.

I’ve got the live feed on now; it’s still dark and it’s just a constant string of explo…[Read more]

High teens today with some showers. We did some gardening on the weekend so this will be a good thing.

Yes sir, and one of my favourites. A beautiful strong grain and is good for everything from guitar bodies to hammer and axe handles. It can be a bear to work sometimes though, and sometimes it will bring sand up into the wood which is hard on tools.

Will, that looks amazing! Slices from the flat and lots of burnt ends from the point; I can almost taste it.
