  “Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar. She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens. She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms. She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night. She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy. She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet. She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple. Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land. She maketh fine linen, and selleth it ; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant. Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also , and he praiseth her. Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.” (Proverbs 31:10-30) I wanted to write today about mothers. The more I thought about the topic, the more I realized that the writer of Proverbs has truthfully and eloquently described mothers. Truly good and Godly women are few and far between. They are difficult to find and are a great treasure to those around them. Truly Godly women provide strength to the family and home, instruction to the children, encouragement to the husband. Truly Godly women have a love for God above all else. These Godly mothers are often in the background and go unnoticed. Today is a day that we are thinking about and recognizing mothers. Be thankful for the great mothers in your life. The mother of your spouse. The mother of your parents. The mother of your kids. Your mother. A Godly mother in any one of these positions makes a huge difference, not just to her children, but to her grand children, great grand children, in-laws, and all of the “adopted children”. The random people who even though there is no relation or legal papers, these mothers extend their hearts and love as if they were their own children. Good mothers are to be treasured. Let us constantly thank God for the treasures that He has placed in our lives. (1 Thessalonians 5:17-18).

  @dddoo7 Haha, no I didn't run it in the drill press. I would have to have super powers to shut it off fast enough. It's tempting but way too fast a spindle speed. The correct way in mill is to stay centered over the hole and put a center in the mill spindle and use a tap wrench with a center hole in the handle to align the tap to the drilled hole. I would switch the mill to neutral and come down with the quill until the tip of the center was in the tap handle then put a little downward pressure on the tap and start the tap. Get a couple of threads going and back up to break the chip then go a couple turns more and you are started straight with the hole. I tapped hundreds of holes this way until we got tap heads for the mills. In my old drill press I drill the hole then without moving anything I put the tap in the chuck and turn it by hand until the tap gets started then loosen the chuck and use the tap handle. Tapping a hole straight by hand can ruin your day and the piece you are working on but I bet you knew that. We used lots of spiral taps and did bottom hole tapping so they had to really had to line up in the hole but with a mill and a DRO it's no problem until you get down to tiny taps then it gets challenging doing it manually. Later the owner of the shop started using tap mills in the CNC machines and for through holes used gun taps that push the chips out the bottom of the holes. Another tip for tapping a hole is spot drilling before you drill the clearance hole. Spot drilling is always a good thing to do so the bit doesn't walk around but drill the spot deep enough so the diameter of the spot is a few thousands larger than the hole so the tap has relief to start easily and the first chip is formed easier and that helps the tap go straight. Both of these stocks had the sling stud rail adapters and with the bipod installed had movement. These are solid :)

  @buddhaman I'd personally wait until the price comes down to more of a "normal" place. ;) $15 a box or so seems reasonable. It could be had once for $10 a box, or less.

  The one I bought two years ago took a little over 4 months. My current one is at a year.

  Remarkable ... such uncompromising clarity and rendition of target, regardless of magnification .... and the field of view does not look compressed .... thank you very much for introducing me to TT. I look forward to later this year in experiencing it first hand.

  And if you think ammo has been hard to get the last few weeks, imagine what it is going to be like now that all the gun owners in CA can restock without a background check. It at least briefly crossed my mind that I should put some of my 223/556 stuff up for stupid prices on GunBroker. Talk about a sellers market.

  Easy Lasagna Ingredients: 1.5 32oz tubs of cottage cheese 1 family size package shredded mozzarella cheese 1 small package shredded parmesan cheese 1 box oven ready lasagna 2lbs ground burger (chicken, turkey or beef work well) 2 jars spaghetti sauce 1 package pepperoni slices 2 small cans sliced olives 2 small cans sliced mushrooms Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder Directions: Brown your burger, add salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and any other spices you wish. Drain excess grease. Dump into a big bowl. Next, add your cottage cheese and spaghetti sauce to the bowl. Chopped your pepperoni slices into quarters, separate the pieces, dump into the cottage cheese mixture. Drain your sliced olives and add to the bowl. Chop your mushrooms up into small pieces, add to the bowl. Mix the contents of the bowl well. The bowl might look like a scene from a horror movie, but trust me, it’s sooo good! Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grab a lasagna pan or casserole dish. Place a generous layer of the meat mixture in the bottom of your chosen pan, then a layer of mozzarella cheese, then noodles. Repeat meat, cheese, noodle layering until you fill the pan. The very top layer of noodles, finish with a bit of the meat mixture, then Parmesan and mozzarella. Bake uncovered at 350 for 20-30 minutes, or until the mixture is bubbly and the cheese on top is a nice golden brown. Enjoy! A few notes: ** gluten free rice lasagna noodles work well in this. Corn or quinoa based GF noodles tend to get too soft and mushy. ** if you use chicken or turkey burger, add a bit more sauce to the mixture, the white meat tends to soak up some of the moisture and the lasagna can dry out a bit. ** my favorite spaghetti sauce to add to this is Ragu Simply roasted garlic. ** you can skip the garlic and onion powders or you can sub out fresh minced garlic and onion. Sauté until translucent while cooking the burger. ** I have made this into a vegetarian dish, subbing spinach, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes and zucchini for the meat.

  @bigfoot : Glad you missed the weather! The adjusters have had their say. Now we’ll see what it really costs to repair. The new to me Winchester 52D runs like a Swiss watch now that I have the rear sight working. The Buck Rogers stock needs a little adjusting so that it holds the rifle correctly and the accessory rail is at the correct depth. No rocket science, just a steady hand and a lot of scraping. It also needs a rest bar that’s easily attached and removed. Again, not rocket science but as I seem to have no suitable materials at hand... When you get some of the list whittled down, give me a holler.
