    I couldn’t believe it. He said he airbrushes them. I should have taken a picture of the whole case.

    Nice! I have an uncle on my wife’s side who builds rods and lures. He made me this signature bottle opener a few years back.

    I’ve done that before. It’s somehow overly satisfying to drill into a pumpkin. I made a night sky once with a bunch of different diameter drill bits.
    Got back from our pack camp out a little while ago. Now comes the cleanup!
