Turning a few chisel mallets for my craftsman friends. This ones for my boss......he's a damn good furniture maker and carpenter. It's a hobby for him but he loves it and will not only appreciate this mallet but also use it. I make these mallets out of mahogany heart wood, and half the time no one wants to use them there so pretty. At least I know this one will be used properly. 20190623_220402.jpg20190623_220239.jpg
 

Sea serpents still bring down ships. Just a couple decades ago the Edmund Fitzgerald got took down by sea serpents.



But everybody knows there are no daft people left anymore. Nope! Public school done whipped the imagination right out 'most every last kid in America. The real crazies are the ones who want to explore socialism and whom to this very day deny that true socialism has ever been achieved.


I'm afraid we are headed to clash which is not going to be pretty. Possibly in the next ten years.

The problem with beautiful women, or any woman, is the possible side effects of prolonged exposure. You really need to prepare your self mentally because there are cases of men being driven to madness by women.
RR, you might have to be careful of placing women on too high a pedestal ;)
 

Women are like race horses.

I love looking at them, but I sure as heck wouldn't want to live with one, at least not till I'm older, I'm too smart for that lol! I am going to enjoy my FREEDOM while I have a chance.

That's 2 ready to go at once. I think it will be able to launch and retrieve at the same time ??

Of course they are. Electromagnetic-fewer moving parts- new fangled-thingamathrower is electrical, and electrical systems are the first thing to need maintenance, the first thing to die, and the very last thing you want on a seagoing vessel. If it is analog you can fix it. You might need to hire a watchmaker to fix it, but it can be fixed. If it's digital all you can do is to buy a new one.
