Thank you everyone for the kind words.

Greg, there were times I felt like using the old blacksmith saying of "use a bigger hammer, but I restrained myself.

The Davis book is "The American Wild Turkey" by Henry E. Davis, published 1949.
I have a copy of the reprint from 1984

Very nice! Cool little project and it came out great. Know you got an ear for it, betting it sounds great.

Only thing I'll hear on that ridge is the bang when that gun goes off.
