  1.     Doesn't exist in the way you're thinking.  The text reads... "no religious test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."   SCOTUS has said... In sum, citizens are free to embrace or reject a faith, any support for religion - financial or physical - must be voluntary, and all religions are equal in the eyes of the law with no special preference or favoritism.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_church_and_state_in_the_United_States         And yes, any legitimate source for this story?
  2. Sitting in the stand before the season can also help the deer get used to your presence.  Assuming it's on private property, leave some clothes or shoes or something up there.  Then your smell is normal.
  3. If there's any doubt what-so-ever, I wouldn't do it.  There's way too many unpleasant consequences. 
  4. Cool jimping pattern!
  5. Simple Green and hot water.
  6. Did you even look at any threads in this subforum?
  7. Check your car insurance.  If road debris damaged it, some policies have zero or a very low deductible for windshield replacement. 
  8. Wow.  Is the slide engraved to match?
  9. Agreed. I've just always found the traditional axe sheath a really ungainly two-handed operation. Like whoever came up with it never actually used one. I like your tethered snap-on blade cover with the handle through a simple hammer loop idea.
  10. Yep. Drill press, vice, several sharp bits, low rpm, very slow feed, cutting oil. Bit should be about 0.020-0.030" smaller diameter than the pin. Chuck way down on the bit so only 1/4" or so sticks out. It's less likely to flex and break. You want to thin wall the top portion of the pin enough so that you can collapse the pin enough to get purchase with needle nose. Let it cool before yanking it out. A slide hammer might help break it loose. Masking tape around the area will help prevent idiot marks. If you know a really good welder, he/she might be able to tack a rod to the pin and pull it out. Just striking the arc will cause the pin to shrink a little and loosen up.
  11. I was thinking the same thing.... The round hit the berm so why the dq?
  12. Nice. GJ is quite the craftsman.
  13. The joy of buying a holster. Unfortunately everyone is different so unless you know someone who would loan you theirs, you're just gonna have to try one. That said, I have a crossbreed supertuck and am happy with it.
  14. Kydex with those high-end tomahawks. That's probably where I saw that. I wonder if you could do it with Velcro along the bottom? Pull the handle rearward and down and the bottom corner of the blade would pull through the Velcro.
  15. Yes. Makes the gun function with blanks. Creates backpressure in the barrel so the gas system will function.
  16. We'll get the shot. We usually wait another month or so as flu reason rarely gets rolling here before January.
  17. If Dolomite can't do it, Predator Custom.
  18. I grew up with a wood burning insert with blowers. Dad would get it so hot we'd open doors with it 20 deg outside. It took a little maintenance and understanding to run, but it really wasn't a big deal. Newer models are really efficient. I really miss having the wood fire. I've never used one, but my understanding is pellet stoves are really easy but the pellets get expensive. Firewood is much cheaper assuming you do the work yourself.
  19. Look up "lost wax casting". You could try something like that and learn how to do it, but I'll guess you'll have a lot more than $20 in it when you get a useable piece.
  20. Not very. They have back-up generators and batteries. They just shut down, stop making power, and let the core cool off. Its something they practice routinely.
  21. True, I can't react faster than the computer, but I don't need to. I can look 4 cars ahead in traffic and anticipate what might happen. I can see the 3rd car ahead weaving around so I slow down or change lanes. So when that driver slams on the brakes because they weren't paying attention, I've already reacted and it takes zero or much less action to avoid. And yes, programmers have been writing software for car ECU's for a long time. After 30+ years of development, they've got the basic functions pretty well under control. Something as advanced as a fully autonomous car? Gonna take a long time for me to trust one. Also, there appears to be little to no standardization for these. Every manufacturer is doing their own thing. What's going to happen when a Mercedes, Toyota, and a Fiat are in line together. The people who programmed those cars may not have anticipated the same scenarios and may have programmed conflicting reactions. Who knows what the end result will be.
  22. Think about a design where the hatchet can simply be pulled down to unsheathe. The whole undo the strap, push the handle up, grab the head, pull it up until there's enough handle showing to grasp, then pull it the rest of the way out method seems really ungainly. I seem to recall seeing a hatchet sheath where you just pulled the handle straight down, but I can't find it at the moment.
  23. You trust computer programmers and the person driving the car directly in front of you a lot more than I do.
