I recently purchased a Slide Pro capo from Charlie's website and I am totally amazed at how this resophonic Slide Pro capo works.  It is awesome to say the least; excellent workmanship, ease of operation and does not change the tone of your guitar versus using your steel bar at the same fret location.  I highly recommend this capo to all slide "Dobro" players.  Below a couple pixs of Charlie's Slide Pro capo:

I photographed the capo resting on top of a DVD plastic case.  US Patent 9,361,863 B1

Pix below of Charlie's Slide Pro capo on my custom made Porter "Flaming Claw" model guitar.

I am also using Charlie's stainless steel tone bar and very pleased with it.  I own two slide bars since the late 1960s and both of them are Stevens.  They finally bit the dust from wear and dropping them in my shop making contact with metal harder than the chrome plated brass.

Ernie Wilson has a great selection of predator calls.  I use his Cocobolo custom deluxe.

Check out Mountain Bike Bill's site for a change of pace from hunting.  Has  a humongous selection of videos and technical reviews of mountain bike trails mostly in California but many other locations as well.  Fantastic still shots..... something for everyone if you love the outdoors!

I recently purchased a Dowelmax Classic doweling jig and totally stoked with the quality and performance of their product.  I reviewed many similar products to join wood together and this one is the "Cadillac" for sure.  Click on the picture logo to take you direct to their ordering page and for additional product information. 

SID BELL ORIGINALS

The above copyrighted turkey track button in pewter is available from Jeff Karner https://sidbelloriginals.com  I highly recommend his products!  Beware of knockoffs aka counterfeits that some turkey box call makers are using.

I have used their products for a decade or more making various types of smoked sausages and very satisfied.  Check out my Short Stories page, Sausage Making and Venison Chop Shop  for a view of some of their equipment in use.

Militec-1 protects metal surfaces with a constant impregnated molecular bond of synthetic-based hydrocarbon derivatives which will not change any tolerances inside or outside of weapons.  Militec-1 works within the molecular structure and micropores of metal and non-metallic surfaces of weapons.  Benefits of Militec-1:  helps prevent jamming, reduces bore wear, provides excellent rust protection, reduces corrosion, carbon and lead build-up and highly concentrated and long-lasting.

I use this product on my personal weapons and as a Certified Armorer for the NCDOC, use Militec-1 on all our weapons at a medium custody correctional facility.

"Take care of your weapon and it will take care of you."

I use this multi-purpose lube for leather products, key and lock control, automotive applications, weapons exterior and mixed with water as a "moose type milk" for cleaning black powder firearms since it emulsifies with water and is biodegradable.

I have been using Modern Muzzleloading Products sabots since they first came out, way back when.  I am totally stoked with their performance!  Click on the logo above for a direct hyperlink to them.

In 2014, I purchased a Hunter Safety System Hybrid model safety harness and their lifeline which is the best safety equipment I have ever purchased for my hunting needs.  I have used some of those cheap "Rube Goldberg" contraptions that come with ladder stands that one of my hunting friends gave me, but it takes an engineering degree to figure out how to put them one.  I can't say enough good things about HSS products and highly recommend them.  Safety has to be your number one priority in my humble opinion and HSS will get you there without compromising your personal safety and welfare, if you follow their instructions!  Click on the logo above for a direct link to them.

My bride and myself are members of the Wadesboro Church of God.  My Grandma Della Coley was one of the founding members of the Wadesboro Church of God and our parents were members also.  They lead us in the right direction, however it is easy to be led astray by the works of Satin if one drops his or her guard and yields to the wicked darts of Satin.

Thanks to our Lord Jesus Christ who died on the cross for our sins.  Salvation and Deliverance is available to anyone who will accept him.

SAVAGE MADE SHEATHS

I recently purchased a Health Craft rotary food cutter and totally stoked with its performance.  I used a similar product back in the late 1970s, but later upgraded to a Kitchen Aid Food Processor.  However, the clean-up with the electric food processor is about more trouble than it is worth when preparing small recipes. 

The clean-up with the Health Craft rotary food cutter is about nil and a pleasure to use.  I equate the Health Craft rotary food cutter as "working smarter, not harder."

THE ENLIGHTENERS

The Wadesboro Church of God in Wadesboro, NC has been blessed to have Donna and Frankie perform during our worship service with their beautiful singing that is from the heart.  They are an inspiration and have a wonderful testimony for Jesus Christ.  The Lord willing of course, when they return again, I plan to do a short story and pictorial essay about their life and ministry adding it to my short story page.  They were with us on our Homecoming 2020 and Father's Day of this year, however due to the COVID-19, we did not have a covered dish dinner.

They offer CDs for sale along with cassettes and their last CD I purchased from them is fantastic giving God, the Praise, Honor and Glory with their God given talents.

If you would like for them to perform for you, please give them a call and/or email them and you will definitely not be disappointed.

I NO LONGER SUPPORT NWTF

I no longer donate calls to NWTF chapters or support the organization due to alcoholic bars set up with free drinks as a means to inebriate potential high dollar spenders and bidders at their banquets.  This is a disgusting and immoral way to conduct business to raise money in my humble opinion!  Also, the usage of "bar maids" (literally and figuratively) to serve the drinks and assist in the auction is low class.  When you are of the world, this is a normal protocol.
