    Well, I finished my brooder yesterday. I used wood scraps from building crates that we build to put our copper range hoods in when we freight them. All the hardware is from buckets of bolt stuff that over the years has been stripped off other things and set aside for future use. The front...

During call holding number 17, your call holding might have been outsourced to India, but a gentlemen came on the...

    Still no pictures? The decaying lumber just sits there, no doubt sadden by the end of its own demise. Like any good plank of wood, the dream of usefullness is only limited by the hands of the user. I hear that once a plank becomes sadden by decay, it warps and bows with grief. Of course...

    Seems to me there is alot of "pulling up a chair going on?" Not much else of anything else is going on, considering the task at hand. I don't even know you and I was excited to read the post here, I got a warm feeling on the inside. Can you at least give us BYC members a photo? Shift it...
