That's an awesome bingo caller poking stick!

But @The Monkey is calling a Stellar game so far ( ya have to hunt but straight up calls) Just the way I like it.

I started talking with him over a week ago about getting one done. Just thinking about some things before I finalize.

I hope to see spider webs and spiders on yours

Some pretty awesome work Shawn! I am still amazed at how people like you can turn a piece of metal into something usable and ascetically pleasing!

That should be fine...... but cover the entire thing in packing tape, and the Stockton Springs Postmaster will have a fit!

So you are a “sort of a knife maker”? Yeah ok, me thinks that is a super understatement! Those are some beautiful blades Sir!

Yeah sort of. No where near master bladesmith standards, but I try.
And thank you Sir.

yeah that's part of Shawn's charm. He tends to walk on the humble side of the line and does great work that speaks for itself!
