    A friends Boker needed new scales, these are Black walnut out of the firewood pile, I used the original wedge, walnut stain and lots of tung oil. They go home tommorrow, sorry for the shaky pic, still trying to master the digital and photobucket. I am a non tekkie, but Im trying!

    Not only did I thank you, I added to your substantial and well deserved reputation! Now if I could figure out how to take it back from Glen!

    BTW Glen, I am learning!

    Me too my friend, sometimes the computer stuff just seems way to complicated to my feeble brain

    I actually feel sorry for Dwessel, ByronTodd, and Sicboater, as they have answered so many questions for me it is scary

    What gets me is that I try to do it the same way everytime so I can learn it and damned if the computer doesnt do it differently every other time! It feels like thisis what I am doing 50% of the time, its aggravating! Thanks for the "King of the bad pics" title I shall carry out my duties with the utmost of pride!

    as for camera shake two ways to remove/minimize it are:

    bright lighting... the more light the faster the shutter speed... less time for shaking

    a tripod even a real cheap one will work use the timer with it and presto no shake at all


    and thank you for contributing to my greeneness... where can i sell these carbon offsets?
