Do you remember the TV show, "The Liar's Club"?
...in the voice of Art Carney, " What we have here is actually the worlds largest bottle opener."
or....
Hey Rick, if you pay the shipping both ways, I'll display one at the AMP SHOW.

Thanks y'all ... I just finished all the hard stuff and was relieved ...
Loni, thanks for the find offer ... the only one I plan to have at the time of your show ...
Is the
Bronzepan ... and that would take something like an Air Force cargo jet to fly it over ...
But it was a nice thought ... thanks

My father-in-law was up this weekend ... and watched me grind one for awhile.
When I came in ... he asked:
<SMALL>Why don't you just send them to a machine shop for all that.</SMALL>
Since we both live in log homes, I replied ...
<SMALL>But then they wouldn't be Hand Hewn ... and I couldn't charge as much</SMALL>

Rick,
There is something really bad wrong with you- and we're all really glad.
Don't stop.

wow, those are too cool, the brass I gotta hear.
BTW Dusty Rhodes could use one to go up against Honky Tonk Man, it would be glorious.
