Feeling the spirit to cast some .510 N.O.E 460 grains today. I reclaimed about 300 lbs of lead 3 years ago...I need to try to use it up....I went way over in buying powder coating too about 13 lbs of it....jeez ill never use it..I usually cast 50lbs at a clip...2 Lee 20 lb production pots and a PID controller.... Shake and bake 25 lbs of slugs powder coating at a time.Water quench out of oven to get them to separate perfectly.. Can post pictures of process if.it may help anyone... If anyone needs .510 slugs I will have lots...

Going to invest heavily into my personal health. Not happy where I'm at, so I will change the eating plan and invest in really clean water. We will see how it goes!

I hate the management here.
If you READ the site RULES, understood them you would not be having these issues. This is a PRIVATE owned web site and we members are guests that are allowed to talk & converse, barter and sell so long as within the established rules you agreed to when signing up. I'm by no miens the site police but do understand pretty much what WILL or WON'T be tolerated. So with that said .. good luck.

I understand that. Admittedly, I never even read the rules, just signed up with the common sense of things that aren't tolerated like picking fights and other common sense things. Then I find out that it's forbidden to even mention powder burners or ask the legality of suppressors, etc... Just seems stupid and I have a problem with over stretching rules. Yeah yeah, its their house, their rules.
Well its not ever going to be like the old Yellow" but its the best we got" Michael is a cool dude"hay he lets me on here" and only be reprimand a couple times" at least i did,nt have to bend over and hold my ankles and wait for that board with all the hole's in it?"O" wait a minute thats when children could be punished?well i better get outa here before i do get in some sort of trouble" Willy

I had to sell a few knives to justify buying this one. So glad I did, this Medford Slim Midi Marauder is wicked!

December 7 have always been a sort of holy day for me, even if i have no dirent national or other tie, then that day is of significance to my people none the less, well the few remaining honorable and caring ones of us.
Mind you most other here are clueless even though they are big on things like Halloween and Denmark have for decades hosted the largest outside of the US July 4 celebrations, though that too are now just a small thing as our two countries have drifted apart and many dont care where they come from or where their family members went back in the day.

I just realized, for the first time in many, many years I let the anniversary of Pearl Harbor slip past me without noticing. My father-in-law was on the USS Saint Louise that day. He is gone these past several years. How soon we forget.
If laziness was an Olympic sport I'd try to come in fourth so I wouldn't have to walk up to receive an award!
If I had the choice between doing something and doing nothing, I'd choose nothing. Unless it was to help someone else do nothing. I would work all night if it meant nothing would get done.
I just found out the company that makes yardsticks won't be making them any longer.

I just learned that Princeton is in New Jersey, where the hell do they source their students.
Latest out of the shop here. Top knife is Walnut with orange G10 liners, not visible in the pic. Next is blue laminate G10 and the last was camo laminate G10, but mostly FDE showing, which is fine. I'll do a leather sheath for the walnut, black kydex for the blue and FDE kydex with a black clip for the last one.
Some pics during dry fit as well as the glue up portion as well... and yes, shop is a disaster. First pic looks like the tip is burned, but was a shadow. Used a brushed/rough finish and then tumbled blades in ceramic media. The FDE knife got a coating of cold blue afterwards to finalize the more 'tactical' look. Looking back at the Walnut, I should have extended the scales a little more and did something else rather than a blunt, straight line... not much I can do about it now. Still turned out pretty. Still need to put an edge on these, as well.

Man i miss beating the living hell out of some red hot steel, it have been almost 4 decades since i made my last knife.
Blanco is a great friend. Always around for everything. Even when you kind of want him to leave.
He says, "Got your back, Dad!"
Cherish these moments, because as we all know, our much loved friends leave us way too early.
I have been blessed with nine much loved dogs and two horses, and when each goes to Heaven, I am heartbroken.

My rule is, if the dog comes and bugs me, I stop what I'm doing and do something with the dog. Some day, my dogs will be gone. So will I. Time is short to enjoy such wealth.
I hate x bows...But a turn in luck...My buddy is giving me his KI Boss 405 when the new limbs arrive Wednesday... He is getting a KI Fatal X....Its a blessing... Money in budget for Pennsylvania 22 pcp...Lots of squirrel coyote fox.and few elusive ground hogs...
Update I hate crossbows!!!!!!!! Ahhhhh....Just setup my buddies KI Boss 405with UTG 130 BDX scope......Spent a day and had it hit the target perfectly at 120 yards.....not as accurate as Airsaber put pretty good......Anyways bow season starts buddies adjusting scope says it moved inches at 20 yards.....I had it perfect... Told him limbs are probably shot.....seen him today limbs spit....had to make contraption to fire xbow with frayed limbs...his third set of limbs...warranty.. But still unreliable..... Crossbow are effective but disposable....
I absolutely love my Airsaber.. It shoots so constantly.. It never breaks... Ahhh I have to go waste my money again on my third crossbow... Wish regulations would change.... Crossbow s are a disposable item sadly.... Airsaber so .much more friendly to use being semi handicap..... My last crossbow I recycled when the limbs broke and no parts available..... Its now a stock for my .510 Texan....
It must be time to spray again. I woke up and walked to the bathroom, slipped on my pajama pants (that were lying on the floor) and whack! I got stung in the ass by a bark scorpion 
Kinda funny, except for the pain in my ass.
Kinda funny, except for the pain in my ass. What a way to wake up, getting stung on your butt cheek… Ouch! I bet that perked you right up, no coffee necessary.
Heh, that will light up your backside, eh? Good you are not further down south.
@Michael That sucks. I've gotten into the shower in the morning and as I moved to rinse the soap from my face I felt something small and sort of rigid underfoot. It wasn't a piece of soap, that was obvious. So I carefully shifted my weight to not put too much on that foot, but didn't want to lift it until I could open my eyes. It was exactly what I thought it was, a scorpion. I kicked some water on it which moved it towards the drain. Since it didn't sting me, once I finished showering I got a jar, collected it from the shower floor, and tossed it outside. I think it may have fallen from the ceiling because it was not on the shower floor when I got in. This time of year I check my pillow, bed sheets, and a lot of times my shoes and slippers before getting into them, using them, or putting them on. Last month I shook one out of a pant leg that was lying on the floor. They come in my home behind the spiders to eat them. I don't mind the scorpions much, but then again I haven't been stung. How long did it take for the pain to subside?
Wall art for the wife
Very nice, well done! It reminds me of a "logo" I burn into slingshot handles when I make one.
Thanks OS. The usual from my shop is laser pyrography, but this is mixed media. Multi layered cardboard cut and glued on to stained wood and repurposed fence wire. The third dimension added by the depth of the cardboard was one of my goals.
