Re: Greetings From Alabama

Oh yes, I was very active on slinging.org a couple of years ago. I went by the same name that I do on this forum. Great bunch of guys, I still drop in from time to time to see how they are doing.

Or my best one has pouch someone gave, made of conveyor belt material. I'll bet there are no Middle Earth equivalents for that! You didn't get that conveyor bel...

Re: Axes

Another option for the axes if you don't want to carry a lot of weight, but still want the chopping ability of a two handed tool, would be to take a hawk like the CS Norse hawk, and replace the handle with their 30" handle. The increased length really makes the hawk head work a lot harder, doin...

Re: Greetings From Alabama

Thanks for the warm welcome! I take it that you guys like pictures here? My keen ranger senses are telling me this of course :wink: Well, here's one of my wife and I from the same day that my other picture came from, but before I bought my hood. http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx260/Brian_Grubbs/...

One of your posts showed up, and as soon as I started looking around, I knew I was home. To give a little background on myself, I've been a Tolkien fanatic since I was e...
