Another 2x4 tease - with drawing!

You’re a cruel man, Gary! :) Ok, you’ve got me baited with interest. Hmmm. . . This is one of the better contests I’ve seen. I’ve looked at this contest on a few other sites in the past and am always impressed with the range of creativity.

-- Jeff, South Carolina

Gary, I’m afraid that you gave away too much information – I have figured out what you are shooting for and plan on telling everyone. Hey guys, Gary is going to be a Watchamacallit.

You told me yours was done!

-- Paul, Texas

Bill – You got me!

Paul – A small mis-truth (I lied), but maybe not. I could have meant that I was done with the drawing.

Gary, I have no idea what you are doing, but based on what I’ve seen of your ingenuity on past projects, my money is definitely on you in this contest.

Gary -

Quite the teaser! No idea what you are going to build . . . I will say it looks interesting!

What are you going to do with all the “extra” material?! :-)

Looks like we should have a contest to see what can be made with contest cast-offs!

Charlie – Thanks for your confidence.

David – You got me thinking about the extra pieces. I just came up with an idea, Thanks!

Nice looking two by, heck you could probably enter just it “as is” and it might place. Interesting plan, thanks for the peek.

It’s a whatsit but with hand cut joinery and the frazzle will be turned on the lathe. The diversion in the framis gave away your final project, Gary. It should be special though. I’m amazed you can get away with the twindle arm in that way. I wouldn’t have thought of it.

Gary;

why not submit it as it is and call it a 2×4?

Lee – Rob – I would were it not for those pesky knots.

How about an eight foot bandsaw box?

-- Maplewood, MN

What are you going to do with the knots?

You can’t let them go to waste.

That’s gonna be one sweet 8’ tooth pick. Hmm, or could it be a giants back scratcher?, no.no. I know Bet ya 5 bucks It’s a new yelloe pine stick rod fishin pole…. fhew got it! I knew those drwings looked farmilar. Yea my old pine stick rod fishin pole snapped from a jig fish on on old oak hill river. Maybe I’ll compete and see if I can make a wooden reel for it w moving parts, using my wood threader! Ha good luck. Gary K the drawings are interesting I like the censored stamps.

Gary, who is the censor? LOL

-- Thos. Angle, Owyhee Design, Oregon

Sorry. He’s knot going to do anything with them.

Or maybe he’ll turn them into knobs.

Now I don’t know.

-- No piece is cut too short. It was meant for a smaller project.

Gary That is one great looking _ (fill in the blanks) I wish you luck on it.

-- Karson Southern Delaware karson_morrison@bigfoot.com

I thought I said what is was going to be? Oh, well maybe I forgot. :-)

I’ve never seen a piece of pine in this country to equal that one Gary. Three knots? Mine has 57! It would be a pity to take a saw to yours!

Hey Yorkie, I didn’t see 57 knots in that great little chair you made.

-- Gary, East TX -- The longest journey begins with a single step.

Oh, I was off school with a cold when they did counting!
