A great little project to take a break from my Batteau. Since now I am scratching the planks. Spoiled by the kits having the planking figured out. Oh well. I decided on the smasher since it is spring time in the america's. So i am spring cleaning my scrap box out. I spent part of the day doing prep work.... BNF Mario        | ||

Hey Mike it might take me a little long to complete because I ordered pen blanks so I can turn the barrel itself. I enjoyed wood turning in High school so now you know it has been a while. That will be the slow part on this build. And thats where it is going on my desk at work.... Mario | ||
