I received my LFRB of crazy lace yesterday. Thanks for the tip tkvancil. Lots of reds and yellows. Can't wait to roll them. What size range did you receive? I'm really tempted. I'll go click a photo Rob, they look similar to Ken's sizes. Whoever broke them did pretty good. Crazy lace is tough to break to good tumble shapes. It's cold out there, this is gonna cost you $5 if you can guess what that magnet does. sorry about big files, straight off iPad and not crop. They are a bit on big side Next layer LFRB, they padded them as if eggs. good grief . wish he sent 40 pounds. he had 326 pounds when I ordered these. I almost died in the cold for you Rob. Oh yea, they are wet

Wonder if it works on humans Michael ?

Is that from Kingsley Jim? Yep. 5/# to 25. Then it is $3/pound above 25. I told him he could pack the box full but they added lots of padding. How many pounds goes in a LFRB ? - 40 to 50 pounds ? Thought I would get at least 40 pounds. I wanted that much. Started all today at 55 and 1 cup bulk grit. 8 pounds/jug, 3 jugs. (you know I have to tell all the specifications, sorry) Easy, ready to roll. Never bought rock pre-broken for tumble. Just got back, hands frost bit. You'd not like it here right now. High winds too. Almost died again.

Hang in there Jim, winter is tough but you will survive. Thanks for the tip on the low price. I'm a hundred bucks poorer, but waiting for the mailman (female man?) is fun again.

Still cold from being out in snow sun up/sun down on Saturday. Cold to the bone. Was wet most of the time. Takes 3 days to thaw. Teeth chattered 48 hours after. Almost died. Torturing those crazy laces straight into the fast barrels with that nuclear grit. 60% barrel fill, no smalls. Gotta getum dun quick ! Life short.

Peaceful and quiet. She felt guilty leaving so long. Poor thing, if she only knew. I do feel bad about feeling good lol.

I ice fish about once a decade. I’m not much a fisherman. I installed plexiglas windows in my deer blind a couple years ago and have been very happy being warm.

You need to invest in long johns, a beaver hat and some gloves ---- Just giving you a hard time......would never survive a Mn winter, then again I don't think I would either. I've been spoiled by these California winters.

I've been spoiled by these California winters. Got thermal u-wear, sweat pants, and insulated Carthardts on. 3 sweat shirts. Got a beaver hat too. Believe it's a rabbit beaver hat. You know what i mean. Ice fishing/stand hunting gets cold, no movement. Brutal. You may find Minnesota is a different animal after living in California.

A window ?!?! That's not going to keep you warm. The first few days of deer season can be anywhere from about 20 to about 50. This year was about 40 and it rained ALL DAY. I ran a Bunsen burner off and on all day. I have a Mr. Heater, but it’s overkill with windows

Spent many winters in below temps fishing and hunting. Dad didn't allow for complaining about it either. I think I fell asleep more than I actually hunted. Now that I think back on it, it was probably hypothermia induced.

Love that Crazy Lace!! A favorite, and you certainly did them justice! Sigh, after my move, I'm treating myself to some rough!
