[hunt and fish]

I am a hobbiest, who likes to hunt and fish and gunsmith a little and engrave a little and also appreciate a challenge. I live in northern wisconsin with my wife and her-our 2 adopted cats. I would like to say after reading some books and looking at some of the worlds master engravings that I am amazed and appreciate the art of engraving. I have engraved a few guns and have come to learn just how much patience and practice it may take to become proficient and there is my challenge. For me there is nothing more relaxing as to set on a deer stand waiting for mister bigbucks to come by and even if he doesn't come by I can look down at my work of art and let the day slip by.
Anyway I would like to say hello and I believe you have a great forum.
