Agreed. All that wood reminds me of the 6-7 years I spent helping an Aussie fellow building a 46' Oro (James Wharram Design).

He had a 2-man Klepper with the sailing rig ...

I love the double bladed axe, how far can you throw it? And how accurate is it?

Martin, you just stick to your boomer-ranges, or MG will get Medieval on your ass. Two things every God-Fearing man owns is a battle-axe & AR15. :lets-eat:

The agnostics own Kalshnikovs and KA-BARs.

Can't own Kalashnikovs or AR15's but a double bladed axe would go well with the Beemerangs.

You sow the wind; you reap the whirlwind, Ace.  :hehehe  Luckily, Martin has diverted this with a universal truth.

Let's return to fuel caps and their many creative manifestations. It's got to lock no matter what it looks like; I consider stymieing some budding sociopath's larcenous impulses a gift to the potential perp and to society.

Ace, they do photograph nicely don't they?

Found the double bit axe at a garage sale for a buck and since I didn't have a good axe I couldn't turn it down.  Nice tool that holds a scary sharp edge.

Mighty Man, you should donate that to Laitch for his winter wood production. His beavers are working themselves to death. Cool blade, indeed.
