    Rope Burn

    Anyone ever heard of wraping a rope around a stock top to bottom & lighting it on fire to leave a tiger stripe around the stock? If so do I do this before I stain the stock? Also what is the method to do this burn? Thanks in advance.

    I checked our local foundry and the price was way too high for alum cast wheels. I found a Amish wheel maker on line that has many sizes including 12" for about $70.00 each. The cast wheels were about $200.00 each.
