    Alrighty gentlemen and any ladies that might be lurking

    Dani, I noticed that the regulations state "only an approved muzzleloader". I would check into that a little further before developing loads and bullet selections. I know that some areas require flintlocks for primitive weapons, others smoothbore with no rifling, etc.

    Sneakbox Renovation

    Steve, Just so I am clear, the self tappers are temporary, until the 5200 bonds? And then you are removing them? Will you be replacing them with another fastener, or relying on the 5200 for the connection? Any reason for the 5200 instead of thickened epoxy? I am not judging, just inquiring for...

    Flexshaft/Foredom

    Phil, My HF one has lasted about 10 years now, with no real issues. I have had to replace a couple shafts ( order more now) and the brushes for the motor once. (Order them now). The handpiece it comes with is okay, but if you can find a foredom one it's sure nice to have.

    Bulged Barrel

    Jeff, I used to work at the KTP in gun sales, and you just couldn't win. Some people got upset if you cleaned them, and others wanted to see what it looked like when traded in. If requested, we would clean them for a customer but most times left them alone till then.

    Anyone with heated vest experience?

    A lot of the guys here at work have purchased these: https://www.milwaukeetool.com/power-tools/cordless/2331 And are happy with them. They do recommend a spare battery though! I guess they are not warm at all when the power goes out.

    Dogs flying Delta soon to have to be flown Cargo

    After my experience with flying a GSP pup, never again. However I have been intrigued by Gundog Express. Anybody here have experience with them?

    Weird Tacoma 4WD Problem Nobody Can Figure Out. Can You?

    I'll give it a try Eric. I would check my calipers for a sticking piston. Disc brakes develop a clearance between the pad and rotor because the runout of the rotor forces the piston(s) back into their bore, eliminating drag. No springs like drum brakes. I suspect that either the piston is...

    "H-Bar", "T-Bar", or any other Effective Floating Solutions

    Just checked. Y-boards are in the carvers corner section. One word of caution, y-boards have a tremendous amount of drag in any tide or current. BIG anchors! Good luck, and give a shout if i can help.

    "H-Bar", "T-Bar", or any other Effective Floating Solutions

    Trying this from my phone, so please forgive any mistakes. The y-boards are a2x4 ripped in half with a hinge on either side allowing it to fold. Typically each leg has a silhouette decoy on it. Instructions used to be on the Mighty layout boys website, and might be in the tutorials here. To...

    "H-Bar", "T-Bar", or any other Effective Floating Solutions

    I have used a Y-board set up with floating decoys at each end to support a flyer in the middle before. Worked well for seaduck.

    Belgium a-5 mag duck

    Mike, I have shot the same gun with a 30 inch barrel for about 5 ears with steel shot and zero problems. My opinion (no facts) is that the steel shot shells have become so much better over the years the concern is not as great. I also don't use anything larger than #2 shot.

    Has Anyone Built This BBSB ?

    I know there were multiple variations of the classic BBSB in this book: http://www.amazon.com/Building-Classic-Small-Craft-Instructions/dp/007142797X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1434453724&sr=8-1&keywords=john+gardner+boats

    NDR--Upland Gun

    Jeff, the Franchi 48al is a fine gun, and one of the more reliable semi-autos you will find. It would be a fine choice. Something that has been rattling around in my brain has been the CZ Ultralight. I have a couple of their SXS and think they are a good value. If you have a chance take a look...
