Thanks Charlie!

Great work everyone
Here's a buffy I'm finishing up. Funny story, had keel almost ready but noticed after my 3rd coat of spar that I still had "drake" written on the side of it. Had to sand it back down and spar again. Guess I got in a rush.

Been wanting to do a stilt for a while. Finally sat down and drew a pattern.

I seem to be in "Nelson Eddy mode" this month (...you young guys may have to google that!)

I just applied a seal coat to these. Now all that is left is to keel the remainder and rig 'em...

That is one imposing herd of pochards! I'd love to see a photo of them rigged on the water.

All the best,

SJS

Rick - Great looking rig! I'd be proud to hunt that anywhere... Pat

Bill - Great can and, great inspiration. Nice to see our forefathers inspiring us today. If it would decoy a can back in the 1940's, it will decoy a can today...

Nice work!

 

[Steve Sutton]

Damn You Bob......now I'll spend AT LEAST the rest of today, if not longer, with the dulcet tones of "I'll be callin you, hoo hooo hooo, hoo hooo hooo" in my head.....DAMN YOU.....

Mr. Mitchell, very nice work!!

Matt, I somehow managed to miss seeing that bufflehead. Good job!

 

[STEVE PWC]

Everything looks awesome. You guys have alot of talent. Keep up the good work. Wish I could do it.

 

[Colin Fitzpatrick]

Matt, that bufflehead is gorgeous!

My buddy recently got a GoPro and let me play with it to figure out how to use it, He's a bit technology challenged. So I saw that it has time lapse as an option so I filmed myself carving a Mallard body last night. First time editing a video so the music is a bit loud so be ready for that. I put on photobucket so we'll see how this work never done a video before.

 

[Neal Haarberg]

OK didn't work. I'll have to figure it out.

 

[Jeffrey Nelson]

Amazing work from everyone as usual. I'm still trying to learn. Here is my second attempt at a Lake Okeechobee style Pintail. Maybe it should be on the bottom of lake, but it's the best I've got. Hollowed tupelo and painted with oils.



The pair

OK didn't work. I'll have to figure it out.
