whatever it is you choose to do generally isn't worth doing if your not going to put every thing you have into it. and taking pride in what you do is a good habit to get into.

i heard that if you take it soak it in water for three weeks, (slack tub) preferably, then take it out rub it down with fish oil, open the back door, then hurl it as far as you can out into the woods, but not pines or hemlocks you may spook the turkeys. then go to flea market and get another for like $20..........got my wilton there for like 25, and was like brand new. (guy didn't realize what he had.


sorry i am ashamed for this post , but every now and again i feel compeled to be a smart a$$

in all seriousness, i'd probably bead blast with a fine glass media, then slap a good coat of oil on then giv'er hell and break out the files and get working.

I sorry to get off subject, but the last two days have been pretty bad,so I was sitting on the couch reading this thread and when I got to the part about fish oil & spooking turkeys. I about lost it. I was laughing so hard I nearly fell off the couch, thanks for making my day.
