Tom, good looking round ball. Of course, has anyone ever heard of square balls, or triangular ones for that matter? I don't think so.
No photos, but today I continued to work on my new horn shop. Fixed the stand table that the lathe sits on. It broke a while back when I had to lay it over to put different caster wheels on it. And to celebrate getting the half sheet of pegboard up, I ordered a bunch of peg board hooks and such. I was amazed at all the stuff that Amazon has for that. I guess they have a little bit of everything. That will be here next Monday along with the hardware for the dust collection system so I will be a busy guy for a couple of days.
Now to go outside in a few minutes and watch the space launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base. We have a pretty good view once the rocket takes off and gets up maybe 500'.

John, I really like the plan of attack for spending, that you and Mrs. Smoke have put together. If we were to do that here at the No Powder residence, it would have to be brought up for discussion. I believe 5 more horns and 5 more shooting bags, would be a bit over $100. And let's not forget, I'm (re)tired, and she is still working. Which means she could have 2 or 3 votes to my one.
