Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Like you, JaxBaron JaxBaron , I can occasionally hit a matchstick, but I have not been able to get a strike. Bill Hays isn't normal... :D You should see his grasshopper video!

Skip if you're squeamish.

For lambsfoot content... Jack's slingshot before it crossed the pond ;)

Hello Guardians! Doing a little target practice this evening. Can hit the matches at 33ft but haven’t got a successful strike yet. Anyone here accomplish a match light yet? Crazy Canuck Crazy Canuck . It amazes me how Bill Hays makes it look so easy. Of course my lambsfoot is my good luck charm. :)

That's incredible Jon! :cool: I can hit a Coke can at that distance! :D ;) Looks like you're getting on well with your Sheffield-made slingshot :) Nice patina on your Lambsfoot :thumbsup:
 
Dan if my memory serves me I believe T Turner closed around 1954. The "oil joints" stamp may give an age range, someone more knowledgeable than myself may know. Thanks Dan:thumbsup:

Thanks Harvey, that's some wonderful-looking bone :) :thumbsup:



Thanks for the additional pics Rob, you have two real treasures there :) :thumbsup:



Thanks Dan, after all the rain we've had, it's been nice to get a couple of fine days! :)



LOL! :D Sounds good, I haven't had a crisp butty in ages, might have to rectify that tomorrow :) I don't think my mate from the tool-stall would try it though, when I told him you had gifted me a hamper of Lancashire goodies, he was quite appalled! :D :thumbsup:



Yes, it's still on my desk from Lancashire Day! :D :thumbsup:

Yes, it definitely is David :( :mad:



Heckle and Jeckle! :D



Just about :rolleyes: Yeah, I enjoyed it :) There is TONS of fallen wood there David! I guess there's a lot of woodland like that right now though o_O



Have you got any pan supports for your burner? Let me know ;) :thumbsup:



You have a better memory than me my friend, I had thought it was even less! Yes, a non-profit venture, and I actually under-priced them :rolleyes:



I had some extras on the other plate too! :D :thumbsup:

That video is crazy! When he shot the antennae off of the grasshopper :eek:. I don’t know how he does it. Beautiful lambsfoot and slingshot. Ol’ Jack is lucky to have a friend like you. :)
 
Thanks Jack!

We had a good day, for sure. After presents in the morning the boys helped my neighbor make a side table for him to place his things when he gets home. He did most of the work, of course, but he let them help make a few cuts and do some painting. I was grateful. In our house the person whose birthday it is chooses the meal. My son wanted fried calamari, sushi, and fried mozzarella so my wife took him to the local seafood shop down on the bay and have been enjoying the variety of appetizers this evening.

Excellent work :cool: :) :thumbsup:

Here's some links to the other thread for those who want to see more :thumbsup:

Morning Guardians, I hope everyone is having a good weekend. I was looking through my order books for all the SFOs we had last year, and it's a shame more of their owners no longer post here (or never did) :( Some of our other once-regular posters I miss too, I hope they're all OK :thumbsup: It rained in the night here, but is fine again today, if a little overcast. However, I have plenty of stuff to keep me busy indoors, might even get the time to do a little sharpening ;) Hope everyone has a relaxing and peaceful Sunday :thumbsup:

Doubling up on my Lambsfoot content as a Sunday treat ;) :thumbsup:

Good Morning Guardians!
RALF (complete with un-noticed pocket lint on his new stippling) and me having a spot of French pressed coffee on this lovely morning.

I have a coffee-pot just like that Jeff, is it dual-wall? Cool mug :D :thumbsup:

My Lambs are a little sad...
They have been shelved for the week as I fulfill Mike's challenge. But they will be admired ever day to be sure.

Poor Lambs ;) You'll have to put them to work post-challenge John :D :thumbsup:
