  I believe he put in over 100 hours into this project.

Woah, I was gonna try to make an el cheapo box in 10 min and stain it. This just makes me feel like a lazy effer. What a great job, how can I become friends with your friend?  :chuckle:

I have such little talent that people cannot even read my name when I write it down.  Tackling a project like this one would have put me in a coma.

When I try to build stuff with wood, it is always ugly, but solid and tough.  Basically it could survive a hurricane but looks like it already went through one.

I don't think I could even manage to post a picture of something that nice, let alone build it!  Your friend has a gift, and my hats off to him for embracing it and sharing it with those he cares about. 

That right there is something that gets passed down to kids and grand kids with a story about the person who created it!
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”

you know it!  I don't have kids, but it will go to someone eventually.

Bucksnort, if you happen to see this thread, this is the handgun I bought from you a few years ago!

Rob.......Did we lose the pics for this thread somehow? Would you mind reposting a couple? All I see is red X's. Or if anyone knows what could be wrong on my end let me know.
