One last thing, MrBill: Uncle Russ could not have created that label--after all he placed second in the 1955 San Antonio Spelling Bee. I'm just sayin!

Russ, I hope you understand that if any metal fasteners are used in wood projects they automaticly are graded with such things as undersized comodes, short bunks plastic garbage cans.
Woog rocket launchers must only be made with glued joints.

But again, as we all know, the Lord rarely endows genius with bodily strength. And wisdom almost always is housed in the bodies of the old and frail. *********************

Ah, MrBill, you sly, specail Devil you. Give a man a fish and he will eat for one day--teach him Photoshop and...

snagged--I was going to glue the whole thing together with buffalo sinew and Gorilla snot, with leather hinges soaked in urine and chewed by squaws--but stainless screws and wood glue seemed so much easier.

Just curious. Has the master woodworker and artistic genius of the millennium taken any pictures of his masterpiece? Some of us humble servants would like to see this famous creation that we have been hearing about for over a month.

MrBill: Thanks so much for asking. Unfortunately, I did not take pictures of every phase of construction as did Gunsmoke with the concrete-filled wonder. My 8 X 10 patio is not as impressive as the environs of his shop. Whereas he has huge machines for every type of operation, I only have a few screwdrivers and wrenches lying around. Also, I haven't used a digital camera in a while so there would be some challenges there as well.

But the crate is doing well--the only thing about it is that I have lost touch somewhat with the original intent of a milk crate--and the POS is more like an enormous tackle box that takes 4 men to lift when full. (Those of you who are planning to lift it for me might want to work out by being the pall bearers at a fat man's funeral.) The rod holders are turning out to be something of an afterthought. Would you believe that putting rod-holders around the sides of a box you need to open frequently could cause problems? Mercy me! Who knew?????

I will definitely post a picture once I get the rod holders installed in such a way that the rods do not interfere with the door or, conversely, opening the door doesn't break 5-grand worth of rods. A milk-crate without rod-holders is like a Democrat without a soul--no offense to the Clintons intended.

But the most important reason I have not taken pictures is that I don't have an impressive guard dog like the one Gunsmoke added to the mix for the sake of variety. The neighbors have a broke-back old dachsund that comes by every so often to drag his dick along the patio, and I was going to snap a picture of him doing that, but when I reached for the camera, he tried to piss on the crate and I had to kick his old ass off the porch. Later he came back and tried to hump my leg.

You know, MrBill, there is another possibility you may not have considered: that the POS crate does not actually exist.

LOL!!! That is too dang funny about the dog. Man, I would be grinning like crazy if I could "Porch rub" the neighbor's house everyday.
