Yeah my wife grabbed that has her favorite. My next idea would be this. On EBay in U.K they sell plank and reclaimed oak and teak wood from old warships/sail ships from pre /WW1 and even older on occasions ,if you ever check out H.M.S treen barrels etc on eBay you will see the kind of stuff scrap shipping yards make. It would be cool to have a stem made from Hms Victory teak . I'm a history buff ,just kickin around future ideas lol

Good afternoon, @rizzo Yeah one of my wood dealers sells blanks from a continental US wooden war ship, wanna say they are oak but cant remember for sure. You have seen that I sell 5,000 year old Bog Oak from Ireland and Scotland right? I also have 200 year old sinker cypress ax cut from the early settlers here in the US. I so dig wood with a story, all about its history bro, I feel you!

love the box rizzo..definately looks classy and the stem selection is amazing..Ive been thinking of another wood stem Ed.. what does the sinker cypress look like? I also have been wanting a Bog stem!

The prime rib steaks were so delicious with the Dales Ed..we use it all the time now.. getting ready to make my delicious beef jerky,,, hubby is slicing meat as we speak.... I usually marinade it for 2 days..wonder if Dales would be a good addition or not..since it tenderizes the meat..just the flavor is kickass..

Good afternoon, @Reflections Ahhh Sinker Cypress what I have is a light color with some greens in it, they have some with wild browns and other colors but is hard to get my hands on pieces like this. For the most part Sinker Cypress is cut into slabs for tables and such, I cant afford these large pieces of wood. What I have is very nice but is not as dark as some I have seen. Mine is like I said mostly light colored beige with some hints of green, kinda minty if you I may say. Vito got the first piece I ever made from this in a solo stem, his almost looks silver somewhat, very nice! IDK about soaking anything in Dales for 2 days, that stuff can get really really salty, even the low sodium can get that way. Thats why I recommend only soaking on the counter at room temp for an hour, I have done 4 or more and ruined a fine piece of meat, I like salt but damn! Hmmmmmm jerky hmmmmmm, maybe we could swap out for a deal, bet itll ship my way, LOL!

@rizzo Hope you got my email, been looking for a goodie for ya but had no luck, let me know what you come up with!

Good morning everyone, wow its getting cool down here, took my oldest hunting yesterday morning and had ice on my windshield, how crazy is that, its so about time. We had a good time together, we didnt get lucky, found a nice spot on the edge of a hill, tucked in by a big tree and put our back against it, I have gotten a 3 piece camo blind you unpack from a small bag, it has this bendable metal tings that lets it fold up neat and easy, you take it out unfold it, it pops out and you stake it down in front of you, keep the critters from getting a good look at you. We got there just as the sun was coming up and got still for a couple hours, was a great morning, just not for us as far as a kill goes. My oldest likes to do some sleeping, was about an hour in and he was out for about 15 minutes, I let him get a little cat nap considering our situation. Hey thats hunting, works like fishing, sometimes you wear em out and get lucky sometimes you dont, its still the beginning of the season, we got many more trips ahead of us! All is good down here, wish the same for elsewhere, makes me sad to see the news yesterday, got words out to my guys there in France, heard from one and not the other, I am sure he ok though. My guy I havent heard from is also my web guy, I know he is ok as seeing my new website is going to load as we speak. I know I had made mention of it long ago and hoped it would have been up then but there is so much to doing it now then it was when I first made my site, all these bells and whistles, wow this one is going to be neat, cant wait to see it up in the next 24 hours! Yall be on the look out for the change and pls let me know what you think. Back to you all in France and the world of course, I feel as though I have got it good here in the south US, kinda rural and remote at times, pretty slow and not much happening, and I get comfortable thinking all is good but all is not good round the world and I have too many friends in places where violence is occurring. Not long ago there was a young couple from south of my state, both were brilliant in high school and one was the sheriffs daughter, her and her BF/husband were caught trying to leave the country to join ISIS, from Mississippi uhhhh say what??? I dont get it nor want to to try and understand why but so many people are fooled by this hateful ideology that terrorizes and kills in the name of their god, I dont want any part of that. I am praying for the ones in Paris and their families that have suffered so much and for the rest of us all throughout this world that one day it will get better and not worse before that day comes.

Be well and stay safe out there everyone, like they say here in the US, if you see something, say something!

@Reflections Woot woot, look out, got me some jerky coming thanks to you! You are so the best, damn it girl, you know how to get to my heart, you already have a place there but now you are staking out a claim, rrrrrrrrr I love jerky and cant wait to get it! Ohhhh my boys are going to be wanting to fight, I can see it now, they love jerky as much if not more than I. I so appreciate you and look forward to what you do!

@Melting Pot Watch out, I hadnt seen that piece in a while, the Amboyna stem, what a knock out it is, the red eyes just freaking pop at you like @RUDE BOY stated! You have a couple of winners there with those vapes, I am just lucky to have a little part in the process is all. @Snappo has a wonderful eye for wood, as I have said he only deals in top shelf stuff, you have a beautiful setup going there homie! Hope all is well down your way meltingpot, I am wish you all the best!

@RUDE BOY That pair is sweet bro, you mentioned it well!

@vaplen Hmmmm I just checked my stamps.com software and I want to say that yours is the only one that hasnt been delivered so far, I didnt get that same message though, want to say its being setup with a new delivery date. If you want pls get with me about it and I will do my best to track it down for you.

Ahhhh @TeeJay1952 I forgot to mention that until my new site is loaded you cant get to my store, you can however make an order through my shopping cart here - http://shop.edstnt.com/main.sc;jsessionid=14FDCF497CF1FDDED1726C59CDEADB49.qscstrfrnt02
This is the only way to make that order for the next day, it may go away in a couple of days though. I know things are changing just gotta get a handle of it all and figure out what works and what doesnt, also what I need and what I dont. The new website should eliminate the need for my shopping cart I think and should save me a few dollars, saving is good!

Thanks for your kind words Ed!
Let's all cultivate goodness and beauty, each of us in our little scale, imo, it's a way to show to the terrorists we are not afraid. They are wrong, Life is not hate and violence like they want to install in our country. :peace:

I've been using my Lotus stem more and have been quite enjoying it. I brought it on a bike ride with a friend; he quite enjoyed the stem and the idea of the Lotus. Unfortunately, I didn't provide instructions on the proper usage of the Lotus and he completely carbonized the load. :doh: Now I'm wishing I'd taken a couple minutes to explain the correct usage. He loved the workmanship on the stem and thought it felt great.

Any tips on cleaning the smoke flavor out of the wood?

Quick wipe down with grain alcohol and vapor!

Good morning you all, well its that time of year again and I have mentioned it in the past, not only is it hunting season but tornado season as well, had a twister go through the area where my country church is, havent been that way yet, headed there shortly, heard there is significant damage round there. I know a young couple I got to church with just made it into their storm shelter last night as it came through. Gosh I hope everyone is ok that way. Our church is over a century old and what a beautiful building it is, we are supposed to have our Thanksgiving dinner tonight, got texts out but no word yet. Was crazy last night, was 8o degrees last night at 7pm with a massive front blowing through from the west that went several states up from the gulf, the wind was blowing so hard, felt nice outside at that time, didnt rain til after I went to bed at 10pm, woke up at 1am to a weather alert but was safe where I was at. Crazy southern weather yall!

@caphector Glad to hear you are still using it and hate to hear your guy burned in it, sent you a PM with my thoughts and would suggest what @KidFated. recommended, thanks for stepping up bro!

Be safe everyone, besides the weather and all the chaos in the world its really getting ignorant these days.

Live far too far away to order one of Ed's beautiful stems, so I shamelessly derived and spun my own little fitting from an old cherry branch, upgraded my never-die FM. Not bad for a first timer? Now to fix that Arizer stem...

Well good morning everyone, what a wonderful cold day it is down here in my neck of the woods, we had a freeze warning in effect, talk about cold, its about dang time! Man I love this time of year, yall just dont know, I am sure I have mentioned it but I am hot natured, I am freaking sweaty mess just about most times here since its always so hella hot all the time, so this cold weather is such a relief to me! My church family think I am literally crazy, I walk into to church sunday nights with a long sleeve and shorts on, I laugh and tell them I am kinda like acclimating to the elevation, the closer I am to the earth the warmer I am, so thats why I wear shorts and then the long sleeve cause I am farther away from the ground, lol! What a beautiful time of year here its cold and brisk with bright blue skies and sun shining, it warms my heart this time of year! Ok so after last week the church was spared from the twister, not so much down the road 3 miles, some people lost quiet a bit, no one was hurt thankfully and hopefully with it being so cold now and so early we wont see anymore of tornadoes. Spent the last few days hanging with my boys, was fun we did some good time together. I even went and bought my first Christmas tree! Its a fake already has lights on it and all I have to do is buy ornaments and a star or angel but the boys are excited well at least my youngest is. I didnt have a tree last year, really was too down to even think about it, but this year is a good one and I am so looking forward to putting the tree up with them next week. My girl is coming over to help out and it will be fun, I already have them a few gifts too that I started buying back during the summer when I had a few extra bucks so will be fun having them ask dad whats in the box! I am so looking forward to next year you all, I am making some changes and believe they are for the best. I am already to looking to make a move, not a far one but one for sure, have been out looking for a place or some land, its tough to find some land, its not like they are making any more of it out there and whats out there aint cheep by any means. I am on the lookout though cause times are a changing and I am with em.

@FluffMolotov Watch out my man, nice work! Well done, looks very clean and am sure it does the job! Dont you just love the fact that you got an old cherry branch and you were able to make that piece, its a gift from Mother Nature and the rest is in your head and hands as to what you can make from it, well done! Now as to where you are, hmmmm my guy @VegNVape is right, I ship worldwide, maybe some things I dont but for the most part I do, dont think for a minute I wont up and get you something out if you want it bro!

@VegNVape Thanks for stepping up and the kind words my man, you are always spot on, I appreciate you!

Now to a different note, I wanna give a big big thanks out to all yall here at FC, I got a little reminder the other day as to how great a community this place is and how awesome it is to be a part of. I have never really been a guy to do forums and never ever was in one for this length of time. I have been to forums before to find answers on how to do this or that but I have never been anywhere that made me feel at home as I do here. Honestly I am at complete comfort here and feel like I could lay back on any of you alls couch and put my feet up on the table and shoot the shit with any of you! I feel so welcomed here and thankful that you all feel how you do about me and my work, my dedication, my effort to do what I do the best I can and my feelings most of all. You all are what makes the world go round, we all have our own little places here in this big wide world but here at FC its like we all come together to share our little piece of heaven and our thoughts with each other. We all look out for one another and we care for one another, that means alot to me. This world is crazy and alot of things dont make sense but what I know is that God is good, we are all human, good or bad, do unto others as you would want for yourself, put your best foot forward, love one another, and be thankful for life! It aint easy always, times can be tough, a day alive is better than the alternative, a friend can make all the difference and care for you when you dont care much about anything! I am not down and out yall, I have been but thanks to many of you Im not where I was. Today is a good day, better than yesterday but not as great as tomorrow.

You all are blessings to me!
