Bear at the bar for one beer again on way back from the walk. Bad influence. They do sure love his antics while there. Hind leg stand belly up. Priceless!

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE 44 degrees now, high of 52. No rain. Thankful for the two hours of sleep I got. Insomnia isn’t fun. Haven’t been to my favorite diner in awhile. Prices went up (like everything else) but still reasonable. I don’t mind the 15 mile drive each way. I can chow down on a huge break...

Morning everyone. Open for business. 43 degrees now and high of fifty five. All the talk about sardines reminded me of the best ones I ever had. About 20 years ago, I had some right off the boat, and charcoal grilled on the pier in Portugal. Somewhat larger than those in a can. They were awesome and...

Re: Wood Lathe

Thanks Unk.
Now that I know it’s possible, I will continue to work on the lathe. I thought of getting an adjustable stool but since the correct height is important, I’ll probably just build one from 2x4 lumber. Cheaper and it will be the optimal height.

I don’t make many anymore either. I quit selling them a few years back. Since then I make them as gifts for friends and family. Now, if I stand in one spot for a while by back hurts. I’m trying to get the tool stand and a stool at a good height to turn while I’m sitting. I don’t know anyone who does...

Re: Comfort Knives!

I'm on the fence about buying a Jack Wolf knife. They are all made in China as far as I can tell. I can get away with buying little novelty knives being made in China, but that's about it. My husband is absolutely disgusted every time he sees a knife made in China, especially one that is patriotic ...

Re: Cigar Connoisseur

Always a great day when you refill your humidors. I’m using 3 of the 4 I have. The one I don’t use seems not to keep the proper humidity. Probably will buy another one. I’m looking at one that holds 300 cigars. The three I have hold 100 cigars each. Like knives you can never really have enough.

I’ve wondered about those Jack Wolf knives, it’s nice to see the run up is tight. I just can’t take off on another brand for collecting. I have so many brands now that I have only half, or less, of what I targeted for collecting. Just going to keep plugging away at those I am already collecting but...

Shaw-Liebowitz dagger. I'd never heard of Shaw-Liebowitz until a week or two ago and I was just immediately intrigued and impressed. From what I can see his pieces are not that easy to find, so I was really excited to find this dagger. It's 7.5" long and it would certainly get the job done. It...
