Waiting on the epoxy on the sole pieces to cure a bit more, I did a dry run at a hatch cutout with my router to get a sense of how many passes I'd need to make, etc. Then decided to test an idea to add a seal with some 1/4" rubber tubing, less for sealing and more for preventing chatter. The...

Looks like you'll be on the prowl! Enjoy!

Stable enough, yes... but the picture makes it look bigger than it is. It is really a stool. Once I'm done with my boat, my next "big" project is a proper woodworking bench, which I'll design to be usable as a reloading bench, too. Not fully decided, but leaning towards an English/Nicholson...

Holy Cow! Or, as they say in Scotland, Hairy Coo!

Will give this a listen tomorrow, but have a hard time believing anything can come remotely close to Led Zeppelin 1 on both counts.

It would be interesting to know the real numbers, but I'd have to believe it is a tiny fraction of the amount of lead being spread pre-ban (due to fewer hunters, smaller limits, and cost of bismuth meaning it is only a fraction of sold/spent ammo). This brings to mind something I did back when...

Just like lead shot, they'll pass right through. Not something to spend any time worrying about, unless you're sitting there eating shot as a snack. Naturally, we should try to reduce exposure as much as possible by cleaning birds well and removing shot... but the stray pellet that gets...

Funny, was about to say the same.

Great looking boat!

Sounds like you just need a bigger toy hauler.

Wouldn't a couple of jackasses have been a better fit for you? Tractor and horses look great!

What a great day all-around!

Meant to add - if you're going with power tools, dust collection is a must in my opinion. A major advantage to hand tools is MUCH less need for dust collection. One of my goals over the next couple of years is to eliminate as many power tools as I can - ideally will end up with just my...

Keep an eye on hyperkitten.com for drawknives and spokeshaves and the like, if you prefer older hand tools (as I do). Josh runs a good shop and generally points out the difference between "collectors" and good "users", and has fair prices I think. Unfortunately most files these days are poorly...

Love it!

Great looking little boat and a nice deal!

I have the Real Avid gun vise for various uses, and have been impressed with the quality. There are a few similar products (copies?) but in my shop vises get used fairly roughly so I don't mind spending for good quality.
