    welcome!! youll be right at home with all the fruits and nuts on here. i like that loading block!

    Thanks, Jake!

    Here's the now finished block, made from a local CA black oak. I love the grain, the top kind of reminds me of a storm-tossed sea wave. Do you see the rain drops? The bottom cuts across the mediallary rays in just the right way, they disappear when turned just so....

    Here's the prototype, made from reclaimed antique old-growth redwood decking. The inlay is smoked eucalyptus.

    Thanks!

    I'll be making more, as the mood swings. Mostly just .22.that's as big as the wood comes, and I don't feel like gluing.

    She sounds fiesty, she's certainly my kind of female!

    She may be far away but just think..does she know where you live Sean? That's what is important.

    21 days until opening day! I'm not sure whether or not you're a hunter but I think Sean should be familiar with that..

    Good thinking, however you forgot I got a glimpse of your truck at the bow shoot now all I have to look for is a face!

    Ahhhh.

    I don't have the gear to hunt with, so I don't. Yet. I gotta focus on my project for now, though. Meaty, furry or pointy donations always welcome.
