You'll never lose the feet to motorized-wing decoys if you attach the feet to either end of surgical hose run through the body of the decoy. The feet look natural, fold easily into a bag or box and will not end up at the bottom of your favorite pond.

When going to the rifle and pistol range to shoot small caliber pistols I have found the empty plastic gum container with the two cap lids more convenient to use to dispense ammo than the factory cardboard box. Very easy to use, does not spill like the cardboard box and will protect from moisture. I put my .22's & 380's in the container will hold up to 100 or more depending upon the caliber you are shooting.

To keep scope from sliding in the rings, (Important on high power rifles) clean the scope mount and mount location on the scope to remove oil etc. apply a small amount or rubber cement to the ring and install as normal. Let excess glue dry and then rub it off with a soft cloth. Even under heave recoil the scope wont move!

When sitting in my cabin last weekend and wishing I could see more photos of my trophy catches I discovered a great way to hang pictures... As I get older and have trouble hammering the nail into the wall without hitting my hand with the hammer I found a great way to avoid this is to hold the nail in a clothes pin. Not only does this stop you from crushing your fingers it also keeps the nail flush and sets it out from the wall the perfect distance to hang a pictre.

HOW TO REPAIR FRAYED SHOE/BOOT LACES 1. Cut off frayed end of lace and wrap tightly with scotch tape, making sure to extend tape past end of lace about one inch. 2. Install on the lace a ¾ inch long piece of electrical shrink tubing of the appropriate diameter size, using end of tape to pull the lace into the shrink tubing. 3. Heat the shrink tubing with a hair dryer until it shrinks to fit the lace. 4. Trim off excess tape and your “new” laces are ready to use. Submitted by: Retired Pete, La Plata, MD
