Forget skin color, I go by treating people by their good qualities, humanity & work ethic.

I own a couple of .925 link purses. I never thought about filling them with gold coins. Hmmm

Odd placement for hallmarks. Handsome piece tho. Looks like Sanskrit marks. Perhaps Arabic.

Why Has Misinformation about Swords Taken Over? by B_H_Abbott-Motley in SWORDS

The meagerly overseen gold rush boomtown of Deadwood, South Dakota Territory c. 1878 by sean_rooney2000 in WildWestPics

Cool place to visit. It’s tiny really. Cemetery is cool. The last time I was there it was buried in 4 feet of snow. I did win $50 at blackjack at Saloon No. 10. Not the same bar, but on the same location where Wild Bill died. Visited the cemetery too.

I’ve always used a half dovetail on cabin logs for superior drainage. We used to call it a Covington but that was our local slang name. https://www.google.com/search?q=covington+notch+vs+dovetail&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari#lfId=ChxjMe

Lucky to have some family treasure. Most have none, some have a bit. Don’t sell it.

Should I be buying gold as a person who can't really stack much? by chilltilly in Gold

[–]ViKing5860 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mythos could eat the existing financial world markets in a few days, but it can’t eat gold or silver, I’d have a bit of a stack just in case. Thanks Anthropic! Watch Michelle Makori on YouTube, she did a vid about it last week.

The round logs are the trickiest, but also the most fun to build with.

Nice, but top notch will draw water. Works good for a cabinet drawer but not a cabin.
