Nice! Love elastic guns, used to build primitive ones for me and my brother.

Ordered me an AK-47

[rrocket]

So I bought myself this wooden gun puzzle:

Mostly as a prank, because the guy in the office across from me often starts elastic band wars, and well, I wanted something that could shoot 12 elastic bands in a second.  It was used to glorious effect this morning, lol.

Anyway, I had a great time building it, and I was very impressed with the quality.  ALL the pieces were perfectly laser cut, and the engineering that goes into making all the mechanisms move is neat. 

It, or anything else from their website, I highly recommend. 

They're playing games with their pricing, though.  It was $62 when I bought it a month ago.  Now, for 'Black Friday', they've increased the price to $95.77, and marked it down to $68.40 'on sale'. 

I ordered Nov 7, and it arrived yesterday, so three weeks to deliver?

Fun!!

Early on in my career, I was taught by some engineer how to "properly" shoot elastics.

Sure enough, his method is accurate, shoots a great distance and is quite painful!

All wins!! LOL [emoji38]

Have fun...and don't shoot your eye out!

An old friend recently posted this photo, we used to live on an island and used an ice-road in the winter. 
If the conditions weren't great and the tide was at the wrong level, this happened sometimes at the edge.



Anyone else ever use ice-roads?

Was in Fredericton today for hockey and saw this sign. If you need a smooth, no bump ride, you know where to go!

Just avoid the drug house next door.

So my son’s friend’s hockey team got assigned the grey sweaters and socks (Timbits) for hockey this year. Uniform colour usually dictates what the team picks for a name. They are the Silver Bullets 

Only took a month before the league asked them to re-name themselves to the Ice Bullets..

Beer isn't okay, but bullets is?

That’s the best part.

Isn't Silver Bullet a copyright by Coors?  Is that why?

It was the beer/alcohol connotation for a kids team. But bullets, that’s fine

And here I thought it was because Silver Bullet is a sex toy.

You own a bed?

You own a bed?

Yes. It has been in storage for the last year as I've been travelling about. Found an apt so decided to move it in and set it up.

I used to be amazed by the amount of stuff I had stored after I came back from a long trip living out of a backpack. All felt like bonus gear

Sort of puts in perspective what you really need and what is just nice to have
