I was really into turning in the late 90's. Then being in the bush and moving lost access to a place to do much. Now that I have my shop coming on line. I am excited to get into it again. I have always wanted to go to the National Woodturners Symposium. But the AK one would be fun as well. Wish it was in April as I may be still trapping in early March. Otherwise I would join you. Get the juices flowing again.

I will post some pics of the game calls when I have them completed. Woodturning sure is fun. If these game calls sell good enough, I might buy a Jet mini lathe.

I think we need to get this guy to come up and give us a seminar! ;0)

Man Among Wolves-National Geographic Special.

Wonder if he knew Tim Treadwell.

Yeah Treadwell Redux

White17:

Have you set any traps out yet?

Turns out Treadwell was not "among" the bears so much as he was "inside" them.....

he was among the berry seeds and fish scales..

This is true Pete, the only reason they were letting him live there so long is they wanted to age their meat.

They were waiting for him to fatten up and bring in the girlfriend so there was enough to make a meal out of.....

how in the world did treadwell get a girlfriend? i didn't think he was "that kind of guy"????????

girl friend. they missed the space.

wasn't she a sheep in wolf clothing and thats what got his attention ? Oh ya brown bears not wolves :)o

i think it was probably the screaming and bone crunching that got his attention.

Either that or the smell of his own CRAP. That tends to bring your attention around REAL QUICK to what is happening.

Nope I don't trap around here. Still waiting for the river to freeze enough to land on at my place.

Nearly 2500 posts are we going fo a new record or thinking about archiving the Almighty?

UPS or USPS , which gets mail and packages faster to Alaska?

Depends on WHERE in Alaska
