I can't find my charger....and I got rid of my not very 'smart' phone so I don't have a working camera...
I'm getting another set of lams cut up for the next attempt today sometime.
I'll borrow a camera of someone if I have to! I'll have another look for the charger.

100# sounds doable.  If not now, then soon.  Already up to 80# or so.  Got pictures yet?

I haven't been able to find my charger yet....
But I have borrowed a camera! I'll go and snap a few, I can only get it halfway to brace without making a press.
The second one is getting along nicely. The lams are all ground, just the handle to shape and the kasan sections to reduce and blend in. I've got reasonable confidence this one will turn out ok....

If anyone wants to send me like $5.00. I will tally up the total and buy Mike the best digital camera I can afford with our funds. And I will pay the shipping to send it to him.

Damn Mike, I can see why it would be hard to string or pull..  Looks neat though.

There we go! Pics!

Pretty cool Mike. I agree with Roy. Looks like a brick outhouse. That'll work your back muscles a bit.

Thanks for sharing.

I'm not going to do anything more to the one in the pictures so I don't know what the weight is.
My second one will hopefully end up somewhere around 40 - 50#

I like it
