Hoping for some help,
« on: January 28, 2012, 11:44:09 pm »
Hey, not sure if this is the place to ask but here goes. My other hobbie is gold prospecting, not really a hobby but more work.
 Anyway, does anyone know where I can get patterns about prospecting? anything from the old miners and a mule or any equipment. I have been all over the net but not finding anything.
 Any help is appreciated, thanks.     Rick

I think I've seen some there too. Ask him here or on facebook.

Ask him, he's not presenting much at the moment. But I guess he has some pattern for you - and he sure makes some of the most advanced patterns you can get!

WOW! I am impressed as usual but that one is GREAT! How about a old trapper in the same style?  Maybe just change the pan to a trap? ;D  Have you ever thought of anything we can do for you for your great pattern gifts?

Hey Paul,
That looks a lot like me a few years back, are you sure you did'nt use me as the model?
I like the prospector best, I think it's the hat.   LOL
Been there done that, and starved, found lead shot but no gold!
