HOT DAMN!!! I love your pony!!!!
At what timestamp can I see the pony?
Why is it your mission in life to snark me to death? Can't find the pony? Figure it out Boy Scout.

I'm now considering taking away your hair award. :cool:

Philo, That was an informative video. I enjoyed it and thanks. I do have a question. I thought the steel baring idea was clever and I bet helped make the process go much easier. Have you tried it the old fashioned way, the way people did it before they had such a useful help? I would think some lubricant would be necessary if your were just using a block of wood with a socket cut in it. Water, bear grease, snow seal, wet clay ? You did mention wet leaves as possible to use. Have you experimented with any of these alternatives?

Thanks man! No, I haven't tried it with a piece of wood with a divot. I will do so however, as I am genuinely curious.....
