  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Anybody got one of these? If so, would you be able to post a couple pictures of it, I need one from the top, as dead on as possible from the top, then one from the side. All the ones online are multi-angled and I need a good side and top view. Thanks in advance for your help!

Camera batteries are actually charging right now. Here are two top-down pictures I've got online for you to look at until I take a couple. I'll get some up later tonight for you!

are you planning on making one wade?
That was my first thought, and it shouldn't be too hard either.

Just a thought Wade. I have used hight temp muffler paint for small handmade items that were going to endure exposure to burning vegetation works great with no added flavors.

If I can get this to work the way I want, I may actually make one for me too, I do kinda collect ashtrays, I've got 13 of the ceramic ones right now and a couple Stinky's. I'm gonna try to make this one out of Purpleheart, it's a bitch of a wood to work with, but I think it'd be awesome if it works. I made this clock for Linda out of Purpleheart a few years back.

I know it's hard to really tell the color of the wood in the pics, but it truly is purple, no stain, just a lot of coats of tung oil for the finish.
