    Leather strop maintenance

    I bought one of those leather strop wheels from Rockler. I use it for turning tools and wood chisels. I have a white compound and a red. It's been so long since I have used it I can't remember the difference. You see guys at county fair's and such with the leather wheels and they always want...

    Drywall Finishing

    Yes, and use this tool. I prefer the plastic to the metal. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Wal-Board-Tools-Plastic-Corner-Tool-88-027/100272393 Knockdown with these. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Wal-Board-Tools-2-in-4-in-and-6-in-Tape-Knife-Set-88-063/202050855 I like an eight inch wide for...

    Drywall Finishing

    I was going to rent a texture machine until I found I could buy a cheap one for less money. About eight years ago I paid $50 for a texture machine. I did two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a washroom in one afternoon. Buy at least an eight inch knife if your going to do knock down. I only have...

    Leather strop maintenance

    OK, let me tell you how to get your knives and broadheads sharper than factory. I do have a razor strap that supposedly my grandfather gave to my uncle when he opened a barber shop in something like 1920, but that's not what I use. If you know someone with a planer have them do an oak board 18...

    Flying squirrel

    I'll try just about anything once, but it looked a little to rat like. They are common in the United States, but not North Dakota. I suppose they didn't want them disturbed and abandoning their site. I was going to show my grandson, but they changed east river road and I can't remember where...

    Flying squirrel

    I have never seen a flying squirrel, but if you keep your eyes open you see some things you don't expect right here in North Dakota. Years ago when my boys were small we were hiking in the Badlands. I thought it would be neat to get a cottontail and cook over an open campfire. I was carrying...

    Leather strop maintenance

    Same here Rusty. I don't clean mine, I rub it down hard with a paper towel and add new compound. I have looked at my knives under a microscope and the edge is cleaner than the Havalon or the scalpels I used for work. I know my knife shaves cleaner than the scalpel blade.

    back country camping

    Ya, know where they are, but only seen them from the west side. I see a little further north the canyon is only 1260 ft above sea level. I think it would be tougher getting an elk out of there than hauling it to the top of the mountain. The older I get the more I consider only hunting uphill...

    back country camping

    You guys had me confused. I thought you were hunting Hells Canyon. I have been in Hells Canyon and when you mentioned 7000 ft and 8500 ft I was scratching my head. I may have missed it, but are you hunting the Idaho or Oregon side? I sure would hate to try get an elk out of the canyon...

    Smoking a whole chicken

    I like smoke so I don't do whole chickens. My favorite is to go to the store and buy the five pound package of thighs. Skin them then rub them down with 50/50 salt and brown sugar and place in container in fridge overnight. Then to the oven at 325 for one hour. Then into the smoker already...

    Archambault is out

    We must have a protester on here. They gave me a negative rep and said "delete your account". That's reward enough if I got under the skin of one of those jerks. Happy, happy, happy. :)

    Northern lights were impressive last night!

    I have seen more spectacular northern lights, but what makes these spectacular 5575 is your a good photographer and know how to make a picture stand out. :;:thumbsup on your photography. The calm reflective water and bright stars on the last photo really add to the grandeur.

    Like Jessie Jackson Jr., Reverent White, Hillary, Obama, and all the race baiters. Most of the people crying racist are doing it for profit.

    General Gun Knowledge Type Stuff

    Very interesting SDMF. The first time my bolt on the Browning A Bolt rotated it took me a few minutes to understand the problem. Problems with new guns is what drives me nuts. I bought a Remington one time and the chamber reamer must have had a chip. It made it past their quality control...

    Hef is no more

    All I can think of is the cartoon where two guys are hanging in shackles among flames and one guy looks at the other and optimistically says "but it's a dry heat".
