Tod, I do apologize for saying that your time is money. Your story is great, I'm glad you had a mother that would do something like that. That is very cool. I too, value my time with my family, and cherish each moment. I do respect your opinion and am glad you are a part of this forum...

Howard, I do not know you personally, and I do not know what you're feeling, but it is still hard to hear and you have my prayers. Seek comfort in Him!

Yes, that was it! I'm sitting at under $200 to date, and figure on another $300 or so to finish it the way I want it. It will get glassed inside and out, if that makes you feel any better about it. And I, unlike you, do not count my time as money. I make my money at work.

That turned out excellent Dave!!!

I had a wonderful baby boy, who is 22 months old now! Braiden Michael Stockdill As for the birch, it's been outside in a tarp tent the whole time, and still looks like brand new. No checking, warping or anything. There's even some scrap pieces laying on the ground that haven't swollen or...

Well, I guess I'm doing this all wrong. I'd better start over on all my projects. I carve my decoys with pink foam (how girly), and am working on building a broadbill (with a pink foam bow) and a sanford box, both with baltic birch underlayment from a big box store. I also bought my epoxy...

I made a pattern tonight for a goose floater than I plan on making out of foam. Some may not accept foam as a medium but it's what I learned on and I enjoy using it. The head will be detachable, as it will be quite large!

The suspense is killing me Chuck! :)

Simply amazing Bob! I too, would like to see some "boat build" pics of this one. I would like to attempt a pose like this in foam. The neck and head look great, he's got some real attitude. As for the paint, well, your painting has always blown me away.

WOW!

Andrew, I got all choked up reading this. I hope and pray that God will comfort you in this hard time. That boy of yours seems awfully grown up to ask you something like that, and should be there by his best friend's side.

That is top shelf, thanks for sharing Eric!

Here's a video of what the call sounds like, and I just got it this morning! This thing is very ducky!!! http://s154.photobucket.com/albums/s270/DerekRidesRed81/?action=view&current=P2110090.mp4

Got this in the mail this morning, it felt like Christmas all over again! This thing is absolutely beautiful and blows nicer than any commercial call I've ever blown! A real dandy! Thanks again Bob, this surely will not be the last call I get from you!

I also use Acrylpro Tile Adhesive in a big bucket for $12 from the Home Depot.

Excellent work from everyone! Tim, I love that brownie! A wooly bugger is about the only fly that I can tie. Jode and Geoff, I love your style! MikeF, that is one beautiful Ringer! That's what I've been working on lately (mine will not be that nice). Here it is ready to be sealed and...

What precious pups, and a great web site too!

Dave, that's pretty cool! I may have to build something like that eventually. Right now all I have is my Little Chief, and I love it. It works great for ducks and fish, but some geese just won't fit in it. This year, the few mallards that I shot, I spent the extra time to pluck them. I...

Great thread! I'm enjoying this one!(I enjoy them all) There are some killer rigs out there! Lots of inspiration for me! Unfortunately, I still hunt my plastics, mostly mallards and geese, with a few repainted as wigeon, pintail, spoonie, and buffies. The foamers I've carved so far are...

Bob B, you said it best! My season may not have been great by a numbers standpoint, but I have not lost any of my fire for waterfowling! I keep reading all these posts and looking at pics of guys taking there kid's out and it makes me excited for the future!!! One boy is 7 and the other 2...
