Recently visited Dave again to deliver some kindling/sticks/firewood!!!Wink.

Earlier in the week, I had the opportunity to spend half an hour on a friends band saw, so I sliced n diced him up a big bag of north coast cedar into various sized 'blanks'.

The cedar was from the limbs off a larger tree that was milled years back and they had been drying in a shed since.

Took a few happy snaps while with Dave..............

The man himself and his bag of blanks - enough to keep him busy for a whileLOL

Just noticed the 'carving knife' Shocked you can take the boy out of the butcher shop, but you'll never take the butcher shop out of the boy LOL

Dave, yours is bigger than mine Wink
Hope you can get up to the Expo, would be good to catch up.

Dave, it doesn't have to be about your lures mate, there's all those lures you just don't see everyday anymore, the ones we knew and wished for......and fished with and lost........silly buggers we were......
AND catching up with old friends and meeting new ones is one hell of an attraction, then there's all the ideas you get seeing all the new crop of lure makers. I came away from the last one with so many ideas and tips on making my lures it wasn't funny.
