Whoops!

This is one of the hazards of working on the kitchen table. :nono: I just finished carving the rifle and was starting to take it into the living room to show my wife.

This is about the third time this has happened. :redface:

My wife would beat me senseless. Guess you need to take her out for a nice dinner. But I will say, my wife lets me clean my guns in the bath tub, she even cleans up after me while I finish wiping them down and oil them.

What is the stuff on the table? Broken glass from the light over the table? Nice looking gun.Looks like you are getting close to putting on the finish.

Yep, broken glass from the light fixture over the table. Guess I'll be making a trip to the hardware store tomorrow to try to match the lantern shades.

But the rifle came through it O.K. right? That's the important thing. The best part of taking the wife out to dinner as an apology is that you get to eat out too. Win-win situation! :thumbsup:

Yes, that's what I told my wife too. She wasn't too upset. I vacuumed the whole house for her after I cleaned up the broken glass.

I too sometimes forget that longrifles are long and to avoid divorce proceedings, always work in the shop......Fred

I think I should just take that rifle of your hands so that this can't happen to you again :wink:

Good thing the ceiling fan wasn't on. :nono:

Good thing the ceiling fan wasn't on. :nono:

Funny you should mention that.... When I saw that picture, I was IMMEDIATELY reminded of what it sounds like when a ceiling fan blade hits a nicely browned Colerain swamped .54 caliber barrel..... :shocked2: And the funny noise the fan makes thereafter....

 

[rkmeyer]

Mossy please tell us how you know that. Hmmm I bet I know but I won't tell. :dead:
Dusty :wink:

Distressing that barrel with modern conveniences, are we? Now that isn't PC. :wink:

Don't ever, and I mean don't ever :shake: :shake: :nono: :nono: :redface: try to dye leather in the house. I spilt a half quart of black leather dye on my work bench in the shop. Had it been in the house I probably would not be telling this story. Teton Ted
