A coffee table I made from a slab cut off the stump of a dead ash here at my place. Beautiful

The coffee table a few commented on. Not all natural colors and accents with ash.
I took a palm sander and took the chainsaw roughness down to decently smooth while letting all the minor cuts and imperfections in it. Then took a metal disk grinder and hit it here and there to give it those light and heavy swirls mixed in with the grain. Lightly went over it with a torch to mix in some dark colors, then gave it 5 or 6 coats of polyurethane. The live edge is natural except for the poly.

I don't do high fence. I had three different opportunities to hunt this deer. I turned them down. My grandson in the picture shot him about an hour after he arrived at the ranch (3,000 acres under high fence). My son had contracted with the owner to take 15 deer. It was the boy's first buck. On the working-mans leases I have been on, I've never even seen such a buck, much less had the opportuntity to take one. I prefer to earn my deer. The location is the Briscoe Ranch, Reagan Wells, Texas. This is a low fence/no fence ranch of some 60K +/- acres if IIRC. All of the pix above are from game cams one of my buds and have out. My buds and I have a 1,700 acre "pasture" that we have leased since 2004. In the pasture we lease there has not been a strand of wire put up or replaced other than what we do. I have put up pens, but they are for keeping hogs out. Here is a typical example of the fences...... great for snaring critters, but not much for containment ya! GWB Did a lot of Oilfield work on the Briscoe Ranch.

Another coffee table, or man cave piece. Refurbished one of those old industrial factory carts, guessing from sometime between the 20's-40's. I cleaned up all the steel and my wife painted the metal with chalk paint then waxed it. The wood just got a good pressure washing and hand scrubbing, then polyurethane. Was a unique piece after we put the work into it. I liked it. Didn't have it long, somebody else liked it a lot better than we did. Shoulda kept it.

Don't see every day..... Where was that? North Pole. Where else?? Can not confirm nor deny particulars... Today's popular location, different group..... I couldn’t imagine that is anywhere other than just south of Prudhoe Bay.

Checking out AAC's 77g OTM in my 6920 for an upcoming competition. It will be my go-to "cheap" long range ammo.

Got this Diamondback .300 Blackout a few days ago. I put a Vortex Red Dot on it.

Jeepers, you shot that thing in half!

My hunting and fishing partner getting to do the stuff with her papa that I didn’t get to do with mine. You can almost see that she’s wearing a let’s go Brandon sweatshirt that she bought herself.
