Thanks, Tom. Not too bad, mostly a fun kit. Mostly.

Man, I know what you mean. I've just got to chain myself to that little corner of my table and make some kinda progress on a danged model.

I've been spending too much time layin' for the feral hogs out at my place. Gotta kill some of those varmints! :grin:

Here's the bunch I'm waiting for, back on the 4th, around 5:30pm. I've been in the cabin twice now when they showed up at the tank, around 6pm, last week. First time, all I had was a .22LR rifle and it jammed after the first shot. :sad: That's what I get for not cleaning and lubing it in over 5 years! Then, two days later, I was ready, with the window closed, when they showed up. I cocked the lever gun, a Savage 99 in .308, and they stopped dead in their tracks behind that big sow. I believe she heard that metallic noise through closed windows, insulated walls and 50 yards away. She slowly turned and walked away before I could get to the window and open it up. Damn. I was there until 6:30 tonight and never saw any of the smart bastards. :grin:

Man that’s a lot of bacon and ham on the hoof… :shocked: I went out shooting the other day and came across a dead Javelina that somebody must have dropped and left there. I swear it was a good 300 lbs or more… :hmm:
