How long are your section?

70" +

When I'm cutting logs for staves I always try to cut them between 70"-75" if possible,  That gives me some wiggle room when making a bow.

fujimo .....That is an awesome story.
I have a 7yo and a 5yo girl that are both going on 18...scary as HELL...

Ordered some glass hopefully for my 2015 hunting bow! Excited!

i honestly think there should be some kind of support group for dads with young daughters- i dunno... teaching things like- interrogation techniques- sniper skills, teenage interpretive skills, slang  dictionary skills- "how to be hip" class- i guess just calling it "how to be hip" already means that it is not...   :D    :D    :D

Zrad I have bad news for you...you are in the sweetheart period. They get REALLY scary around 13...
My daughter used to be my 3D shooting buddy until she got too cool.  Still a great kid but just growing up too fast!

got me a plan fer that!
a good friend of mine, who had a young daughter a few years ago- had the first boy come a-courting. now he's a great big tough logger 6'6" tall and seems about 6' across the shoulders!! anyway, the kid was driving a banger of a car- well, he just strode out there and put his double bitted axe through the hood!!
the kid left in a hurry, and Kevin had to buy another hood from the wreckers- but he figured that was the cheapest insurance he ever bought- his rep spread like wildfire at the high school

That's awesome. I've been trying to figure out how I'm gonna handle things: Daughter unit #1 turns 16 next week and DU#3 turns 11. (Yes, #1 almost got a baby sister for her birthday one year.) DU#2 is fourteen.

Yes Wayne, they seriously need to put out a manual for how to father teenage girls who fight with their mothers. I think chapter one would be titled, "How to make sure your liver lasts the next 15 years."

Anyone seen Justin around? We need to get him to update the title of this thread.

         
i concur 100%

For pitty sakes there college graduate.... How about a new 2015 thread? Geeze oh man.. Kids...  

Sure, that would have been nice and clean on January 1st. But we have month's worth of good stuff here that is now in the wrong spot. Plus no one else seemed to think it was important enough start one so far, seemed it'd be easier for you old farts to just keep coming back to the same place. Justin could just append the original title to "and beyond."

BTW, who says I graduated? Sounds hard.

Ya know sumpen, next time you stop to visit me, I'm just gonna smack the crap outta yer arse...  

I'll call Justin now and forward your concerns, BOY...

Lmao!

...I'm sure...can hardly wait..lol    

I just hope they grow out of the "too cool" stage.
Hell..I was too cool to have fun for a few years..but I changed back.

Bought my Wife a new Van today.
1st new car ever...I'm not all that excited really.
Kinda chose the lesser of the evils.
She's a happy girl though.
jeez..with the interest rates you get on new stuff it's hard to justify the used.
...hopefully I'll get a nice thank you later...lol

yeeeha!          
good luck later....

whoa...guess she liked it.  

Cool.

Bent another trilam to 28" today. Hickory, Merbau and American white Oak belly. First time with this combination. Bue--.

Sorry I' still in 2014, had lamb chops from wild sheep and a bottle of something. Buee--.
