    Anchor and rope question

    I can really wind the riggers up asking them to "drop" it over there. They prefer "set" or "place" Hamilton Marine can set you up Ed. They are right in Portland. Or New England Marine & Industrial in Portsmouth. Or maybe Casco Bay, doesnt Steve's buddy Carl own that? Length wise? 7:1...

    Here's another idea for flattie floaters.

    Bills thought works. And if you cut the top view to shape as well it looks a little classier. And yes, slot them to fit.

    NDR - Any NAVHDA members here?

    Hey Nate, Yup I have done the Nahvda thing and the Akc hunt tests. The Nahvda is much more involved than the AKC. I thought the Nahvda training program was a great one, although there were some things I was lack about. Ex: my old shorthair loved to retrieve, I didnt force break him because...

    NDR-T/C Omega??? Help!!!

    Phil, I would try the T/C sabots without any questions. I havent dealt with them since Smith & Wesson bought them out, But they used to have the best customer service I ever dealt with. If the new sabots dont fix your problem, call them again, they will want to know and will help.

    Youth Model 20 ga. What's available?

    Tough to beat the 870...BUT You might want to look into the Mossberg Bantam 500. The stock is easily adjusted for length (cant remember from what to what) And Mossberg has a pretty good rep too :).

    Advice sought for wood lathe compound sliding tool rest (numerous pics)

    Maybe I'm not seeing things right here Eric. If I am understanding you correctly you need to move the cutter up 1/2" to fit you lathe. From the photos it looks like you have at least that much adjustment in the slot for the hold down bolt. How about a stack of hardened steel washers ,and...

    Decoy broken neck

    How about epoxy? I assume its a jagged break? Just mix a little up, spread it on, and place back together. I've broken more of my decoys than I care to think about, and that is my usual fix.
