    WITHDRAWN Beaver Tail Skinning knife and sheath

    I see now the new setup has the knife deeper into the sheath, eliminating my original concerns. Good job on the design. Don't worry. A hunter is going to buy this one. Best darn skinnin' knife I ever owned. :thumb: It will skin out a deer or other real fast with no holes in the hide to ruin...

    WITHDRAWN Beaver Tail Skinning knife and sheath

    To be fair, I think you said that because I requested the snap on a leather retaining strap be added to the sheath on mine. It drove you nuts trying to protect the handle from the snaps backside. I think. But I'm old and memory can be twisted a bit some days. ;)

    Very old bees wax.

    Should be good to go. Melt it down and tell us what it smells like. Beeswax has a distinct pleasant smell, unlike the smell of paraffin.

    Get some .18 patches and some smaller balls. Thick patch smaller lead can be eye opening.

    Into the Wild Frontier

    There is one thing that I noticed about the show that bugs me. Time between commercials. As an episode begins, they space the commercials very far apart. As you near the conclusion the commercials get jammed in very close to each other. They know you are hooked and wont bail out on the end of an...

    Percussion Hammer Problem!

    If all else fails, try adding a thin shim under the bottom edge of the lock plate. Thin, as in a square of sandpaper. This will tilt the hammer towards the barrel just a bit and may give you the clearance needed. Of course, keep an eye out that this doesn't create rubbing of the hammer against...

    It's on the Inspirational channel. Check your local listings or have your tv service do a search. It comes on Wednesdays at 10 pm on my system.

    In case you enjoyed it, apparently, they launched season two. I had my system set to record all episodes last year and it started recording new ones! Two just aired, 2 more in the que. Say what you will but it's better than Gunsmoke or the Lone Ranger.

    I don't worry about critters at all. The 2 dogs know they are not allowed into fenced garden areas and take a dim view of pests that disrespect their dad.

    Just add it to your regular compost heap and turn it once a week. It will really heat up faster than adding diet cola! Acidity can be knocked back easily with lime.

    Depends on what you grow. Too much on peppers and all you get are leaves. Too much on tomatoes and you get rot. And yes, those chickens are going to be a big problem on your garden yield. They eat the bugs but peck a hole in everything you grow. Ask her to round them back up and get some Guinee...

    Have to disagree with what they told you. It's good, but...Chicken poop is one of the hottest fertilizers out there. Not a good thing. Unless fully composted it can burn and kill the seedlings. Find somebody that keeps rabbits and offer to clean it up for them. Rabbit poop is the best and can go...
