    It looks good, Irving! I am especially impressed at the ingenuity displayed in using a part of the old chair for the vented bottom. That's American Spirit!

    Well, according to some government talking head, ( his name slips my mind ) during the last ammo panic, said that the shelf life of ammo was no more than 10 years. And thought that the hoarding of ammo was rediculas because after a few years it would go bad.........

    I'm still loading pistol powder that was in a 35lb keg from the 70s. It still goes bang consistently.
