    Wife is heading to the states on a business trip and I have put an order in for some Gold Hog matting. Looking at the UR, Scrubber, Talon and Razorback mats, one off each.

    Staring into the eyes of a killer

    For nearly 2 years I stacked timber, planed timber and made some pretty impressive interior archways for the old colonial homes.
