NOT IF I GET INTO IT FIRST!!!

Chris,
I thought we were buddies.  At least save me a bite.  Please.

We are Buddies Art. That's why I plan on bringing a small cooler of tradable goods myself. Along with some sharable snack on things. If your still wanting to do the trade thing! My supply is getting low, it was a long cold winter!

Does this mean I need to bring my latest mini-cheesecake creation?  If I must.

Had to install my sausage rod before i started stuffing. Got the dowel cut and wiped down with vinegar, gotta re locate some of the larger containers, got sheep and hog casings soaking. Soon to stuff.

Looks crooked but its straight. I can prob hang 10 lbs on it. Got a fridge fan to keep air circulating....I'm ready

So i said

Hmmmm

How bout kick it up some. 2.5 lbs






Stuffed into hog casings.


Hang time, no smoke.

I know what your thinking (be nice)



The other 2.5 lbs in sheep casing. Put the tubed casing on and pull it off.



Coil or rope whatever you want to call it.


And a test collagen.



Got one twisted, no biggie.

They look good to me, I can provide you a shipping address since they aren't as dark red as you wanted them to be ;) :D
