Distractions

Trying to work on outside projects as the weather is perfect.

Finished my fly rod, will have to make more, until I get it right.

Here's the Butt section.
Yep, I signed it. Also threw in a Vietnam ribbon since it was a project at the Vet Center with all donated materials. Thank you all, great therapy!

While playing in the shop I thought of a project where I needed the rod drying rack.

My first try at a video on the blog, hope you can all see it..

Now back outside; there's concrete to be poured.

Stay warm.
