The base is pretty good.
Thanks Ken, I thought I was losing my mind or something

Roger that, deferring again to the voices in my head

I checked with my voices and they concur with your voices

Ken Fluffy and Dave Dave in KY I've a question for you both (although this could lead me to yet another rabbit hole): How easy or difficult is it to set a knot?
The mechanical and craftsman genes of my Dad bypassed me entirely and all ended up with my brother. (during my early adulthood I endured hours of torturous teasing about actually paying some one to change my oil. Oh the scars.) But reading posts by Dave regarding setting knots to his liking made me think, OK, while I can't turn a handle on a lathe, I think I could set a knot, especially if it is "easy" to redo if I foul up the depth or something.
The previous life teacher in me would like to request a report on knot setting. But I'd be happy with just the basics like what adhesives do you use, how is clean up, and the any other pearls of wisdom (for whatever reason, in my profession "they" refer to tips as "pearls of clinical practice," which just sounds pretentious! Teachers are more honest and often say things like "I stole this idea from someone at a conference last year"!)
That knot that Ken posted a pic of is a beauty, and some of the handles I have seen have me wanting to get a really nice handle to put my favorite knots into. I think my 26mm and 30mm SynBads are the bomb, but the handles are so plain when I see the eye candy handles around here. (Here comes that deadly sin, covetousness!) (OK, I shouldn't make to light of deadly sins. I am trying to acknowledge that this is just a want. Coveting, greed, jealousy, and the like make you miserable and unable to appreciate and enjoy what you do have, and can turn nasty if left to fester. Sermon over!)
Thanks guys, you make my perusal of the Journals loads of fun!
