    Default Some fun projects

    Finished these projects last week and delivered them a few days ago to my customer in Da UP. He is a trapper and wanted me to design a fur stretcher board with the name of his new man cave. It is 48" long and designed from the actual measurements of a board for a raccoon pelt. He really liked them and posted them on a trappers' forum site and I am getting a few good referrals. Picked up a few more projects from my web site as well. Good thing I just retired...I think it is going to get busy around our shop. That's ok, busy is good and I never have liked morning TV....

    I was unaware of the beer prayer. As anyone who has seen any of my posts, I enjoy a small libation every now and then. Thank you for my newly acquired education. That is so going onto one of my walls.
