  1. Yeah, I'm not sure about the historical accuracy of the scenery. I'm sure some of them were nice. I was shown a table once that was actually made by an company that served as undertakers. Consider that they were making coffins also, so some fine woodworking may have been expected. I'm sure not everyone was buried in the rustic boxes you see in the movies. This was a golden age for fine woodworking. The craftsman and the apprentice. Skills were passed down and people took pride in their work. I honestly don't know about the prevalence of sandpaper at this time. Smoothing planes were used and they can create a very fine surface. As far as finish goes, shellac would have been the most widely used film finish at the time. It is what you'll see on furniture 90+ years old, before nitrocellulose lacquers were common. Shellac can be polished to a very high sheen, though it's not very resistant to water and alcohol. I recommend researching shellac, it's actually quite fascinating how it's "harvested".
  2. I thought some of the "wood handlers" on here may be interested to know that the Woodcraft in Chattanooga has gone out of business. The remaining inventory is being sold off estate sale style. September 1-4. 40% off everything on Saturday. More info here: http://www.estatesal...les/328533.aspx Woodcraft site here: http://www.woodcraft.com/
  3. I may swing on down tomorrow and see if I can find a Ruger Charger. They are surprisingly hard to find.
  4. My Glock 27 will eat Winchester White Box .40S&W all day long. I haven't bought any in a while, but you can generally find them at Wally and they are Brass FMJ.
  5. And not the first whisper from the Times Free Press on this story......
  6. http://www.davehayes.org/2006/02/10/the-gary-fadden-incident Other links didn't seem to work.
  7. My favorite is the "Rare!.....One of a Kind!".......no picture.
  8. “Welcome to Tennessee, the patron state of shooting stuff.â€
  9. I dig the tanto.
  10. Heck of a flipper. Congrats. They are. Definitely wouldn't call them slippery. The texture is nearly identical to my ZT350.
  11. This is a good great quote.
  12. I passed on a tan/black skyline a while back....wish I hadn't. The fixed Skylines are pretty nice too. I've had the Cryo for a few days now and I'm really happy with it. It's great to get a Hinderer design for under $40.
  13. I had a mini grip once. While it's a super sexy knife, I never quite warmed up to the Axis Lock.
  14. Does it have an option to register your business as a "gun friendly" zone?
  15. I'm no lawyer, but it sounds to me like you would be within your rights to protect your access to your home. The deed may not mention maintenance, but I would darn well think it would stop someone from destroying your right of way. I hate you're dealing with this. I would think a lawyer could at least confirm what rights and/or options you have with a consultation. I hope it works out in your favor.
  16. Yeah, besides Apple hippie types don't carry anyway. They just use it to find "safety zones".

    Man, I've been wanting to put a surge protector on my G27. I just haven't had the funds. Did it eject the casing?
  18. http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2012/08/15/police-moviegoer-accidentally-shoots-himself-in-the-rear/?hpt=hp_t2 I hope they don't charge this guy. If shooting yourself in the ars doesn't teach you a lesson.......
  19. I just ordered one of these. Kershaw rarely disappoints.
  20. Great show.
  21. Is that Leek solid black? Very nice.
