Very nice! Those are some snazzy handles.
I thought I'd try some kirinite....it's sands up pretty darn smooth.

It's made from 1/8" thick 1095 carbon steel and the blade is just over 4 1/4" with an OAL of 9 1/4". It has jimping on the spine and Black MOP Kirinite handles. That's right...they call it black but it's more silver than black to me. It has an unsharpened swedge and is nice and light and sharp as a razor. It has two tone blue and white liners, lanyard hole and includes the sheath if anyone is interested.
The design in the blade is permanently etched into it. It's not like lazer etching on some blades where when you hit it with a sanding pad it will come right off.

Thanks for all the input guys, I live on the side of a hill in the middle of no where and I didn't really think of the window vs skylight thing; the extra security and more usable space sounds nice, I'll have to look into and running electricity to a bit more. I might be pushing the dimensions already, but I've yet to do a rough layout outside yet.
Another question, pressure treated lumber is needed I take it, but is that and the condition all I need to be concerned about when buying the lumber? I'm no where near ready to do this, but I'm getting my ducks in a row.
If your going to be 4' off the ground I suggest using pressure treated for all your framing/ floor joists and posts and even the 3/4" flooring. Regular framing lumber should be fine for the rest. I have 2 sheds over 20 years old built this way and they are holding up just fine.

Congratulations on the new pistola. :up:

4X4's tend to twist...I'd go with 4x6 or 6x6 if it were mine....just sayin'.

I have Border Collies.....all are rescue dogs. We actually had to bottle feed them since they were only 3 weeks old and their mother passed away. Best two dogs we could have ever asked for.

By all means, if that's me talking about committing a crime, then the admin can send me a pm. I know you have no idea who I am. I don't really care if you ever do. I have had dozens of TGO members under my roof, shoot at my house, and come learn blacksmithing in my shop. I would give a stranger the shirt of my back and the food off my plate to help them. But I was raised different than most. I was raised that your word means something, you take your hat off at the table, you call people Sir and Ma'am, and you don't desecrate a flag. If someone insults my wife or my mother they will either apologize or I will most likely put them in the hospital. If I catch someone beating a dog, horse, etc, I am going to return the favor. If I catch someone beating a woman or a child I'm going to kill them. And I'll stand before a judge, jury and Almighty God and say the same thing. You don't insult people, you don't hurt those who can't defend themsleves, you don't lie, cheat or steal. Burning a flag was your question, but your intent was to start a fight. That's fine by me. I've been around far to long to fight on the internet. I don't really care if you agree or disagree with my values. But it pays to remember that some people live by the law of what's right or wrong, not what some paid off judge decides. I'll gladly face any consequences for my actions, and answer for them. But I'll die knowing I stood for something and didn't compromise my values for some piece of garbage who thinks torching a flag is perfectly ok. It also pays to remember that carrying a gun doesn't automatically make you a badass. There are those that will make you eat that gun, holster and all.
While your entire post was perfect this part struck close to my heart.
I'll gladly face any consequences for my actions, and answer for them. But I'll die knowing I stood for something and didn't compromise my values for some piece of garbage who thinks torching a flag is perfectly ok.Many people today lack goals or principals and even many that do lack the courage or intestinal fortitude to defend their principals. You don't strike me as one of them.

Reagan is pretty much over rated. He was a really good actor.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels this way! And he was really a mediocre actor, too.
Compared to Obozo Reagan was a God. :rofl:

These tree huggin' Berkenstock wearing hippies will be among the first to perish should something of consequence happen. I have no patience with people like Caster ran into.

The syringe has a very small tip which allows you to apply a very small amount to a specific location and not waste any or have to spend time cleaning it off all the places it shouldn't be. It works great. One syringe should be nearly a lifetime supply.
I have that. It's a handy little sucker.
