Well, deer season came to a close, its been too wet for pheasant, and we have had too much snow in the high country to get to that bear I was tracking...
So I spent a bit of time in the shop http://www.forums.woodnet.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yellowbiggrin.gif
First up should be an instantly recognizable design of a coping saw. Slight modifications are: 1" stock, handle on right side to assist in blade rotation. The tension you can put on the blade is unbelievable. I'll likely make a couple more in different sizes :

Next up are a bunch of file handles I made for a bundle of flood rescued files/rasps. An original handle (probably made by my Grandpa) sits second from the lower left and was used as a pattern...the feel of that handle is butter in my hand...gramps did just right.

Another shot of the files. And a mallet...can never have too many mallets http://www.forums.woodnet.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yellowbiggrin.gif :

And finally, the worlds ugliest saw till....in an appropriately horrible picture:

Looking forward to more neandering after the first of the year.
