It is so good to teach kids early on. We got our daughter to do all kinds of things when she was younger. Art, drawing, music, science, doing repairs to mechanical stuff, cars, etc. etc. I am a firm believer that if kids get their hands on something early on, while they might not like it just...

That's the kind of approval worth having. t

Another from a crooked piece of stag I found a nicely figured stag taper in one of my bins. Great color and texture. But...................it was more than a little twisted and had an "S" curve thing going on. I was going to take it home and give it to the dog for a chew toy. Holding it in my...

I received an email asking what kind of saw blade is used to cut this stuff. It is a Swedish made, 1/4" wide, 16tpi blade that is only .014" thick. It is the carbon steel version of the stainless steel blade used in the meat-packing industry. This blade was designed originally to cut through...
