Hey gang, I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend.
Maybe this will be an interesting post to some.
So, I bought this rolling knife sharpener to maintenance my new kitchen knife set. It was pretty expensive and I hope that I didn't make a mistake with this purchase. I bought the more expensive "Horl 2" instead of the "Tumbler" because Horl offers the two extra finer grit stones.
I bought the Horl 2 (Amazon) which has a 1 to 1 spin ratio. The Horl 2 Pro has a 1 to 3 spin ratio and costs a small fortune.
Check out the gearing in the Horl 2 Pro

Hey Greg, yes, that is very interesting to me and I am sure Bosko and MT.
I have seen that advertised and I like it because it makes sense and it isn't complicated. I also like the Japanese stones, but you still have to get the angles just right.
With these, the angle is set for you. I say good buyHelping one person may not change the world, but it could change the world for one person.

Good to see you are alive and well, Mark! Yes on both counts re: SG. Sassy Girl, will be a great mother. Everytime little bubs are brought outside to get some sunshine, SG loves to stand by their baskets, grooming
them and just protecting them, making sure they are safe. The original carer did an amazing job the last 14 months and then brought her to a larger rescue place where they do soft releases, whereby animals can come and go as they please..

Hey Louise. That is very sweet.
Happy Monday everybody. Got to low 30s last night. Workout done, shower done. 1 cup of coffee done.
Spring is about here. My Dogwood has leaves and buds all over it. I got 5 cuttings from it and planted them to see if they will make babies. Might make some more.
MT must have taken a long hike. Back later.

First time in years I have lived without a dog in the house. But I still have my chinchilla which snailsrus she had one too whom unfortunately she left behind
rip to my best buddy Blackjack. And more importantly rest in Peace forever to snails !
Ellie
She has a free run of the house now with chord protectors else chinchillas will chew them.
I think snails was the only miscer who had a chinchilla but could be wrong
Ellie’s breeder is one of the top judges in the world of chinchilla contests.
Ellie’s parents have won multiple awards and ribbons in Chinchilla shows.
So she has super good bloodlines and came with lineage and a pedigree.
I made sure NOT to get a poor man’s chinchilla from a chain petstore and I opted for a very good show quality one instead from a 5 star breeder.
I drove 5 hours there and back yo get her but it was worth it.
The ladies love her most of them and think it’s so adorable I own her lolBLM (Brock Lesnar Matters)

Happy Tuesday Gang
Lou1se, I think that you have some very cute friends, sassy girl is adorable
Gregg, that is an amazing sharpening set, I like it, you got some awesome knives so this is a great addition. I enjoyed the videos they were interesting. I never seen anything like that.
Kaz, always great to see you posing my friend, I hope all is well in your corner of the planet.
Deathstroke, I really enjoyed reading about your lil buddy, cute little frigger for sure.
Mark, sounds like you are getting some cooler temps, pretty neat about the dogwood cuttings.
A couple of pics from this mornings adventures on the ice. Winds made it colder than a whitched tit out there but I managed to get a couple of fish for me and my buddy for supper.

Big MT, great shots. Always admiring
Thanks for sharing.
Happy Tuesday everybody. Business is picking up and getting more busy, which is fine with me.
Hollah out for Bosko. Hope you are ok. Been a while. Last we heard, you were digging out of the snow.Helping one person may not change the world, but it could change the world for one person.

Hey Ben. It has always been quiet, really. Only a very few people like to post here. A couple are pissed off for life this isn't a "Snap" thread
I have better things to do than waste time on that. People come and go and that's the way life is.
Ben, have a great day.
Happy Wednesday everyone. March winds are big from 20 to 30mph. But, at least it is warming up now.
Have a great day.Helping one person may not change the world, but it could change the world for one person.

Howdy ben, Mark and gang
Ben, no idea why people aren't posting I can confirm that it's not because they are ice fishing, I haven't seen anyone fishing all week. Mark you are getting some wind, good that it will warm up for you though. We got some high winds and snow coming in so I was on the ice at O Dark early and just got off before the snow hit. I always like to fish the leading edge of a front like that it's usually pretty productive with the barometer moving and it didn't disappoint, I was only out for 4 hours but it was a busy one with some nice fish released. A view from my office this morning.
Ya'll have a great day and keep a grin on them chops.
I may have found Lou1se
