Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

1607908731704160649911.jpg

Good evening guardians... Haven't checked in for a while, but while putting the finishing touches on a couple of slingshot frames I thought of my friend Jack. Been using the lambsfoot to clean up some rough carving marks and round the tops. In the left is a honey locust, and the left is sugar maple...both taken off of removals we were doing when they caught my eye before going into the chipper.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend.
 
I have an electric kettle; it is called a Keurig. I use it to heat water for both tea bags and instant hot chocolate. Works great!

Sorry, I haven't been active the past few weeks as I am recovering from a crushed vertebra from a fall. Five minutes on my feet and I am in agony.
Hope to post new pictures of my lambfoot soon.

I am over 80 and have Spinal Stenosis and I consider myself to have less pain than a lot of you folks do . I will just count my blessings .

Good evening guardians, hope you are having a good weekend. I have to go back to school, i recently posted what is not allowable in the Guardians thread, i have deleted said thread and put myself on notice. I have to redo my learning of the threads rules. Hope you all have a good and safe week, and please take care.

You were just trying to be helpful Leon :thumbsup:

Harry, we don't see enough of you! :D Sorry to hear about your Spinal Stenosis, getting old sure isn't easy is it? :( Good to see you here, and those two wonderful vintage TEWs of course :) :thumbsup:

Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone had a great weekend :) Wine and a movie on the menu at Grumble Towers last night, and I managed to get my Christmas lights up, which was a bit of a struggle with my back - a far cry from 1977, when I put up most of Sheffield's Christmas illuminations, over a period of several weeks! :D Have a good week Guardians :) :thumbsup:

Thanks Jack. :thumbsup: Have a good week as well. Hopefully you're back stops giving you trouble...

Thanks pal, I had a walk down to the post-box at the bottom of my street earlier, and I was walking like I was stepping on eggshells :rolleyes: Got a big supermarket delivery later, so we'll see how things are after that o_O :thumbsup:

Looks like Snowy the Snowman is going down for the third time! :eek: :D

Thanks Bill, that photo is from the old Ibberson's factory :) I'm sure Snowy isn't alone in struggling to keep his head above water this year! :eek: :rolleyes:

Beautiful crisp pic of your Hartshead Barlow my friend, I hope you get your chores done :thumbsup:

Thanks Jack. Just going through a lot of my tools and automotive stuff and cleaning house of the things I don't use. I must have over 100 screw drivers:rolleyes:; so it's time some of them find a new home(s):D They sun came out just now - for how long, who knows?:rolleyes:

I also have far more tools than I need Bill :rolleyes: Hope the sun stays out for you, it's already going dark here (3.40pm) o_O :thumbsup:

I must have 100 screwdrivers, unless they're emigrating and not just hiding. I have to keep buying more.

With me its hammers, I probably only have a couple of dozen, but that's a lot more than I actually need, and they take up quite a bit of space :rolleyes:

Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone is doing OK :thumbsup: Sticking with my Hartshead Barlow ;) :thumbsup:

Gets dark here earlier now with the coming of winter but not at 3:40 PM like where you are! Yikes!:eek: Can be a very depressing time of the year.:thumbsdown:

Yeah, easy to see why folks wanted to have a good mid-winter party. Must have been grim before central-heating and electric lighting! :eek: :D

LOL! :D Thanks mate, very good :) :thumbsup:

Hope you can keep warm Bill :) I've just been out and shared a pot of coffee over the garden wall with my neighbour, but I'm definitely not getting enough exercise and fresh-air at the moment :( Nice to see your Bagpipe Ebony my friend :) :thumbsup:

I've just heated up a pastie for my lunch :) :thumbsup:

Jack, You and your HHB will make short work of that pastry:D I need to cut back on all the goodies that are out on the counter for this Christmas Season and like you, need to get out and get more exercise in the fresh air.:thumbsup:
