<p /> cuz it ain't this one.[p]I had some time on my hands today and thought i'ld do a little whittlin. Wanted Clay to carve me one but i guess he's kind of busy. I wanted it to look like a big ol bratwurst and had to cut the channel and turn down the ends to add the bun. Heck i showed it to my wife and she still didn't know what it is.[p]so much for copying. guess i'll leave it to the pros.[p]Scott

    egret,[p]that, my friend, is a pickle crock. Actually, that is what got me to whittlin to begin with... I was working on the new table and got stumped on what to do next. So i grabbed a hunk of wood, thought that a handle would be easier to make. Maybe i should have made the handle look like a pickle but i don't think anyone could have told the difference between that and the bratwurst.[p]Scott

    Clay Q,[p]Thanks for the offer. I will give it one more try, after i finish the table. I may have a new hobby. Shoot, everyone hear recognized that it was a hotdog. It must've been just the wife that couldn't recognize it.[p]Scott

    Lawn Ranger,[p]You ever notice that it's so easy to spot the original. But, i guess that is quite a compliment, when guys like me try to copy it.[p]Keep up the good work,[p]Scott[p]PS. If you ever want to expand your tool inventory I'll help on the metal work. Stick with what i know.[p]Scott

    eggor,
    Man, I wish I had inventory...but, alas, it's tool to tool. But what I've learned from this Lawn Ranger thing is that people want something original. I've probably made over 1000 tools since Nature Boy kick started this thing a little over 2 years ago...and often I despair that I can't turn them out fast enough to keep people happy (major character flaw). I've got a full time job, an 8 yr. old and a lovely wife...and they are all pretty high maintenance...except my wife who is currently being considered for sainthood.[p]I'm rambling, but,....I have rarely had anyone complain about the amount of time it took to get their tools. That tells me a lot about the people on this Forum. Although I've been priviledged to meet a few members, on the whole, I've never (not) met a bunch of nicer folks. It's a Family.[p]This entire thing was a gift, and hopefully it will continue. It's a labor of love. I really appreciate your offer, because I know you're a whole lot sharper metal wise than I will ever be. I may be picking your brain.[p]Thanks for the kind words,[p]Mike
