What other hobbies do you have?

[David LaPell]

So other than guns and things about guns, what do you do in your free time. Besides my woodburnings and writing, I like to build models as I have for the past 10 years or so. These are just a few of the ones I have on shelves here and there

The HMVS Cerberus, the first true breastwork battleship from 1870

The USS Cairo, union ironclad

The CSS Tennessee,

Huey UH1-B

Fokker Eindecker and Sopwith Camel

Good old tried and true M4 Sherman

Soviet KV-2 Gigant

This is the latest project, th USS Laffey, about 1/3 done. In April, 1945 the Laffey was subject to the worst kamikaze attack in WWII. Attacked by over 50 Japanese planes, the ship was struck by 4 bombs and six kamikazes with 32 killed and 71 wounded. But the ship was saved and repaired. This is going to be for a display in a local museum. I'm trying to make then ship look as it did during the attack.

Thats a nice looking furrow you got there, you don't have to change the points and landslides very often with that kind of soil. We would just put the big Disk on ground like that. Most of my plowing was on clay and rocky ground. We would start in early fall and go till we couldn't get the plow in the ground because of to much frost. Use to hard face the points with Stody 31 to get a little more wear on them.

I like collecting knives mostly Case XX and Gerber boot knives, old beer and pop cans and bottles, but what I really like doing in the summer is tubing and flying down the lake at about 70 mph in our Baja.
