Needed some rock therapy tonight and this one did the trick. Hopefully I find some time to put some silver around it this coming weekend.  Thanks for looking Chuck |

I had to walk across the room to show that one to my wife. That's an awesome rock. That cab's not half bad either.

That's a great looking cab — just looking at it is therapeutic for me!

Thanks. The seller accepted my offer on that equipment. Supposed to pick the stuff up this weekend. The listing is still up on craigslist though and that always worries me. I have had stuff sold from underneath mew before. Chuck |

Lake Superior, Teepee and Fairburns might be my top three. I have never held a fairburn but all of the stuff miket has been posting is drool worthy. Chuck |

Nice job on that one Chuck!
I really like Teepees too, but it's sometimes hard to get one that will cab (or cut for that matter) well without fracturing-for me anyway.
I have a bunch just sitting in my garage staring at me that I need to get to one of these days- and I'm chomping at the bit for Spring to get here so I can go look for more!
As far as Fairburns go, they're a little bit closer to me and I think I'm going to take Monday off and get out to see if I can find some more.
I've gotten skunked the last few trips and you know how that feels!

I can go on ebay at anytime and buy 20 pounds of lakers but good luck buying a pound of Fairburns. Chuck |

Yep, I can find Teepees all day long, but I can look for hours for a Fairburn and not find a single one- then go to the exact same spot another time and find a few. But I do love the hunt!  |
