Say, any of you boys smithies? Or, if not smithies per se, were you otherwise trained in the metallurgic arts before straitened circumstances forced you into a life of aimless wanderin'?

 Steve Bailey has pretty good rods... hickory in 5/16, 3/8 and 7/16 ... he's in the back of Muzzle Blasts magazine at (573) 768-6545 .  I ordered 10. They were not split, but all were good.  No throw outs in the bunch.
