We made these little aluminum plates at one shop, a heat sink of some sort for electronics, about 2"x 2". After we machined them we had to send them out to get them anodized. One edge needed to remain naked aluminum. The plating shop said they had to mask that one edge, to ensure it was done properly. The whole process was something like $6/plate with the masking. It was like $0.25 per plate without the masking. We just had the whole things plated then did a finish cut of 0.001" to remove the anodizing off that one edge...took more time to mount it in the jig than to cut it. I bet Nemo is masking that off, hence the price. Jon

I worked for this lady that had pet horses...take her out to her ranch twice a day and feed the dogs and horses. About once a month we would get a hay shipment. At one point the rabbit population was so high that when the hay would be delivered in the morning, looking like a large block structure, by the time we got out for the afternoon feeding the hay would be rounded off on all the edges and corners. We'd come pulling up and rabbits would go flying off the hay stack in a couple of hundred different directions. One guy put one of the Crosman pump-up target pellet pistols in the trunk with some pellets. After a few got killed the rabbits soon learned they could sit at about 50' and watch the pellets tumble up. I put a Daisey pump-up rifle in the car trunk with some flat point wad cutter pellets. The rabbits moved out to about 100', same thing...watch the pellets tumble up to them. Then I went and got some of the pointy "magnum" pellets, which the shooter could lob as far as you could see a rabbit. Everyone started averaging around 5 rabbits per trip. A few of us would hunt rabbits while the lady watched her horses. The dogs ate good for a couple of months. Jon

Drew...man...why you harshing on my cashflow dude. Dang. Jon

No crap. Was trying to get my pitbull to get a rabbit that was laying frozen under a creosote bush...practically had to shove his nose on it. Finally it went from frozen to full-speed. After he startled straight up in the air, he did a Bugs Bunny burnout until his feet finally got traction...by that time the rabbit was 30 yards away. Jon

Falling? That's the feel of the paper getting hot, as it changes from green and white to brown to black, as it bursts into flames scorching a hole in my pocket! The front pocket too! Jon

My buddy had one of the old diesel Scout IIs...thing was a TANK! Get it Tom! Jon

Dang dude! 115*...you're lucky that tequila didn't explode! jon

Quit buying?! Dang...I just started on the little ones a couple of months before CT crap. This is only the beginning. Jon

Stupid prices are the only reason I'm looking at them now. And their prices are 2 or 3 times what they were before stupid started. Jon

Any word on snow? Jon

Good find! Jon

Alright you AR gurus, what's true and what isn't? I know that some of the Plum Crazy builders had some issues. Now there appears to be a plethora ("Sí El Jefé...a plethora!") of polymer AR15-style lowers available...New Frontier, ATI Omni, FMK Patriot. Are any worth your money? Any would wouldn't take if someone gave it to you? What are your personal experiences with them? Jon

For what brand? Jon

Howdy and welcome APR! Jon

Welcome george995! Jon

Have you tried posting this on a spanish gun forum? Jon

Very interesting stuff. http://www.collective-evolution.com/2013/02/02/21-fascinating-images-that-make-simple-things-profound/ Remember why we had magnifying glasses as kids? Jon

Nnooooo!!! Oh, what's that? Jon

Ok guys... My buddy was at home and his wife told him to go out and "get some of those pills that give you an erection!" So he ran up to the drug store, came back and handed her some diet pills. Anyway, who has a spare room or couch? Jon

I have a buddy whose shoulder used to bug him a little bit occasionally. Until he got a Marlin Guide Gun in .45-70...then it bothered him all the time, until he had surgery. Jon

Installing brakes is always more fun in 8" of snow. Jon

I missed him in the '70s but saw him in the '90s. Way back he refused to headline concerts and would put on a supremely high-energy show! Many a great band has been booed off stage so Ted could do an encore. Pretty hard to follow a long-haired hippy jumping off an amp stack, while shooting a flaming arrow into an exploding target! Jon

Yup. Already expressed my bewonderment here: Jon

I'm telling you guys...we need to get him over for the annual shoot! Jon

Yup. For my purposes, if they get used they get confiscated. No sense in losing a $$$ knife. Jon
