Flyer canoes? Flyer totems?

[quote="Vickie"]Flyer canoes?

Cool thought!

Flyer totems?

Wouldn't split the log for this.

Powder may like a flyer canoe, She enjoys playing in the boat. Tom

Gail sent me this:

I am not amused! :roll:

Looks like fun to me.

I think your building new flyer dens. Don't see the drills out yet. But then you could be building them a canoe which I really like that idea .

Does Gail think we are that far over the hill?

gloryaf88 · Postby **gloryaf88** » Fri Apr 13, 2007 1:00 am

What is it? What is it? Don't keep us in suspense here :!:

Is it new shelves for the wild bunch to play on?

gwsgrand · Postby **gwsgrand** » Fri Apr 13, 2007 10:13 am

Tom your to funny. No I am afraid of motorcycles but would ride on the wagon. LOL Nope no one is ever to old to ride . Joan where is your helmet?
I love the pictures of Powder on the boat. She is just to cute and such a little sweetheart I know.

We were standing still. LOL Actually I wore Tom's and he said he was too hard headed to need it. :twisted:

Maybe you are going to hollow it out with routers and then glue it back together with holes between sections and in the sides???
(I would)
:cool:

Mary · Postby **Mary** » Fri Apr 13, 2007 5:52 pm

OK my guess is 4 flyer nest homes for the 2nd and new wild bunch cage.

How did I do?

You two look like your having way to much fun on the motorcycle.
Enjoy

Oh Judy, you always know! They'll even come with work out instructions to build up biceps so you swat with 50 pounds of half a log.

Deb · Postby **Deb** » Fri Apr 13, 2007 11:58 pm

A Man(and woman) Made Hollow Log! Y'all are going to scoop out chambers and then glue the 2 halves back together for the little monsters.
Because the huge hollow middle support post in the wild bunch enclosure is getting too crowded. So you are going to add some suburban neighborhoods. Then some of the furballs can move out of their urban high-rise and live in the sweet new 'burbs :cool:

gwsgrand · Postby **gwsgrand** » Sat Apr 14, 2007 8:44 am

Yep I second that one Deb. Good going. Now I wonder if your right? :wink:

Would that even be big enough to feed that wild bunch in? :twisted:

Running half the log threw the saw.

It left slivers like a filter that had to be removed with a chisel and hammer.

Chiselled out half.

Checking on Powder's job of fine chiselling.

Wanda · Postby **Wanda** » Fri Apr 20, 2007 12:15 pm

Wow, Powder did a GREAT job didn't she??

Lora · Postby **Lora** » Sat Apr 21, 2007 6:19 am

ROFL... you're killing me over here. You, Tom & Powder... What a motley crew, lol. Powder looks like the building inspector. Boy did I need a laugh this morning. Thank you!

sundown127 · Postby **sundown127** » Sat Apr 21, 2007 9:45 am

Gee, wish I owned a table saw, to do that with a log! I only have a circular saw, and a jig saw. And people think I am strange for being a woman who owns power tools, and knows how to use 'em! I wanna be like Joan!

I am jealous. And I want more flyers!

And I am really jealous of Powder! What an amazing little flyer girl she is! She knows who she owes her life to!

Lora · Postby **Lora** » Sat Apr 21, 2007 5:31 pm

Still ROFL... I had the worst day at work today. Everytime it got real bad I just thought of the bike pulling the little cart & busted up laughing all over again. You guys are too much. Keep it coming.

Wanda · Postby **Wanda** » Tue May 08, 2007 9:37 am

Joan, we want an update on your new project. How is it coming along? Is it finished? What is it? Is it a nest box? Pictures and stories!!

How long does this thing take? Building an ark??? :twisted:

I've been tied up at home lately and will need to get with Tom to see if he was able to keep Powder from finishing it. LOL

Oh no, Powder has it finished! She is better and faster at building anyway. She don't need all those power tools, just her teeth.

Bet she even carves her name in it with her teeth! :wink:

Driving the holding rods thru

Cutting the end caps with a jigsaw

Sanding the end cap on the belt sander

Tom cutting the end caps in half (he wouldn't let me use the table saw because there wasn't a guard) :roll:

Staining the end caps

Air gunning the end caps in place

What the heck! Joan ... this is a family forum. :oops:

There ... that feels better! :wink:

How the heck do you think I'm supposed to get inside this thing?

Drilling a hole in the end cap

Step aside and let me show you how it's really done :wink:

OK ... you're 2 cm off ... this won't pass inspection

Rubbing the inspector's tail won't cut you any slack.

Finally! Passed inspection after a back massage and pecan treat

Deb · Postby **Deb** » Fri May 11, 2007 11:52 pm

OK it hangs from where? And for which lucky furballs?

gwsgrand · Postby **gwsgrand** » Sat May 12, 2007 12:14 am

They are going to have to make one just for Tom's inside flyers. Powder can't be left out.

Mary · Postby **Mary** » Sat May 12, 2007 6:25 am

Yeah A BIG job- Well Done. Looks great. My compliments to the 3 of you. Powder did an excellent job of supervising to make this project completed.

How did you bend the hanging rods?

A great big mansion for the furballs.

Pictures #7 and #8 are Joans answer to a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat ( pulling a flyer out of what?). Tom

Yes, gives new meaning to the phrase, "Blow it out your a--"! :twisted:
