50lb is asking quite a bit of oak, depending on how dense it is.

Got the word an hour ago my great nephew enlisted in the Navy.

I've been mentoring him in hunting and stickbows for 7 years, he's 21 now.

Made me so proud of him, brought tears to my eyes.

That's cool, Roy. Does he have a specialty?

Good for him! If he decides to turn it into a career he can retire at a young age.

Flem

Congratulations to him and you  :clapper:
I hope he has a long, rewarding career and nothing but smooth sailing!

Glued up this mess up today. A lot of hassle for a accent strip.
