I have a Karcher 1800 electric pressure washer and I will not say that it can compare to gas powered washer but it does good job (if not a bit slow). It will take off most crap but not anything really attached - using the cleaners helps a bit. I got mine from Lowe's for about $125 I think -...

I think Chili deserves a nice braised duck breast for her efforts!. Great pictures. Thanks Dan

Steve - it depends on the type of laptop you are using - on my HP usinf the fn f7 will lower the brightness and the fn f8 will increase it. What kind do you have? Dan

Ed; I am sorry for your loss. It is never easy to go through but know you are not alone. Everyone on this site is with you and you are in our thoughts. Dan

David: I am sorry but I only took the pictures and forgot to get the names. After I left, I thought about going back but was running late. I did zoom in the picture and for 5102 & 5103 (the first Mallards), it is Rick Brown from Delaware River Decoys according to the card. Thanks Dan

From my perspective this was worth the drive down. I got to see first hand what some of the techniques discussed on this site look like up close. My only regret was that I was not able to purchase a comb. I was hoping to pick one up. Dan

For those of you who could not make it to the Tom's river show, here is a link with some of the pictures I took. Once on the website - just hit next to scroll through. http://paleodan.multiply.com/photos/album/30#photo=12 Thanks Dan

Very nice job and you recycled! Even better. Dan

Very nice - I am still trying to figure out my first boat and I count at least six in your pictures! I am jealous! Please add some pics after you grass it up. Dan

Guys thanks for all the replies. That looks like a great technique to add some nice detail. Appreciate the suggestions and the PDF! I will place my order today. Dan

Dave; Thanks - I have not heard of combing. Can you give me an example of what it looks like or how to do it? Thanks again Dan

I took a shot at the other decoy, the Canvasback, and am a bit happier with the way it turned out. I appreciate all the comments. I am going to make the changes to the Mallard when I can get the paint. Also heading out to the hardware store to get the oak for the keels...

Thanks Kevin for the information on the keel. I will try that this weekend. Dan

Thank for the comments. If nothing else it is very relaxing. I am using Acrylics and will pick up those colors mentioned. I was going to try the oils but they seemed more involved for my first try so I went simple for now. I also purchased a canvasback drake and will start in on him...

I received my decoys today from Mike and I took a shot at painting my first Mallard. I could use some feedback and suggestions. I tried to go from pictures as best I could but I am not sure I like it. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks Dan...

Yes and the other thing to remember is to NEVER use your DEBIT card online - that money is instantly taken from your account.

It amazes me how often this seems to go on. I specifically asked the Card Company for a report that I could give to the police and they told me it would do nothing. These were internet purchases and no one would go after them. The two purchases were for "Lawn Services" and "Online...

I will take one but have a "special request" Can you label it "Turkey Massacre" on the top? PM me with the details. I will take your recommendation as to the wood types. Thanks Dan

Just a quick "head's up" to make sure you review your credit card accounts often. I went to my local gun shop to purchase some ammo to take to the range this coming weekend and my CC got declined. I called my bank and they began reviewing the recent charges with me. There were two new ones...

Wish I was with you rather that here at work - "knock em" dead! Dan
