I was informed by his wife that Tom Tyler passed away yesterday due to complications from a recent emergency major operation. Tom has been a waterfowler for years but of late his interest had turned to upland hunting..usually solo with his dog. He enjoyed fine double guns in smaller gauges. He...

👍 Always nice for the "forbidden" fruits to be taken. :-) When my wife is away I do liver and onions and fried oysters.

When my supply of sugar pine dried up I used a piece of "stump" cut 4" slabbed Lombardi Poplar for heads on bsc cork and tan cork diver decoys. That was starting about 1985. They (30 or 40) are still ready to use and held up just fine. I don't think the poplar you buy is the same tree. Maybe...

While not in the league with many carvers on here I will add that I do 95% of my decoy power carving with small sanding drums on a foredom. Note....I very seldom work with basswood which I hear fuzzes up with some power tools? I usually use two different grits ( very course ((40-60))and fine...

MikeF...Sorry to hear about the old boy but a fitting place for him to end his career if that's the case. So that spot has fallen out of favor with all the rally boys that ruined it some years back? If so nice to hear that also.

I'm in today via PP I usually donate in January each year so almost there now. We all need to help keep this site going! Thanks Eric

Brad you have room on the shelf for another?

Yes to match up as each decoy is unique.

Thank you for the comments. I am far from an expert on these having made a total of 9 canvas swans and 1 goose (unfinished) so far...and two more swans cut out but on hold now .. waiting for my next spurt of activity. Out of the 9 swans I will have 5 until I finish the next two as they seem to...

Actually a summer project I don't believe I posted any of the build here but they are finished now with the advice from several people along the way the last being Vince P. Thought I'd post up a picture. Won't get floated this year for sure. Several of these have removable heads as I found...

Well I guess I'm embarrassed to say that I thought that the numbers we gave were used for the estimated take for the season even with the knowledge that those numbers were already published for the previous year. Brad you probably had told me that but either it went in one ear and out the...

Mark W ... interesting on the tape. I looked and 3M lists 84 VHB products. Can you give a specific product that you used?

Well I'm past the need for more stuff (like picture, guns etc) so rather than destroy the pamphlet I'll leave it for my kids to throw away when the time comes.....but if anyone would like the hard copy let me know.

Eric attached is the cover of a similar publication I have in my library. I browsed it and at one time thought I'd remove the artist prints of ducks and frame them. Since you have an interest in this type info I'd be glad to send it to you rather than destroy it by taking out the prints.

Finished up a couple of canvas decoys that I had started a couple years ago. I?ll wait for warmer weather to paint.

Well hello Tom. Welcome

Ordered one T. Thanks for the opportunity to support the side in addition to an annual donation. Great site and members!

Eric will these be priced so they also serve as a fund raiser for your site? I?m in for at least a T.

Thank You Dwight H
