    I'll bark it on sunday and square off the ends and smooth off the branch nubs. Then paint it with motor oil and wait for a few weeks.... paint again with motor oil. I expect that by late May it'll probably be ready to use, and I'll round off the little end so it doesn't chew up our hands.

    Around midsummer when it's really dried out, I'll either paint the caber with "paint"...or put a coat of clear polyurethane on it.

    Hmmm... maybe I'll paint the little one, pink.

    The "Pink Panache Projectile" ?

    Hmm... I don't know the P3 has a ring to it...

    If you stand under it when TimC throws it, it will add an entirely new meaning to "Pink Death".
