Please slap me if this was already covered in the thread but what materials and/or solutions were made in order to keep this thing from being too neck heavy? I remember someone saying something about a counterweight strap pin or something but that was all. Anyone?

That is awesome, definitely takes it up a notch or 20. Great job. Looks like I may have to do a name change

I disagree, the sooner the better.

Yeah, me too--I was just kidding--I've lived with anxiety all of my life & have developed coping skills. Sometimes, if you squeeze hard enough, you can get blood out of a stone. Looking forward to squeezing hard for the 6er.

Isn't that more like if you squeeze hard enough on a stone you bleed on it?

Yeah, you're right--although I've been squeezing my stones all morning & they're hurting like hell & I think there's some internal bleeding.

I'd rather have doodie on me than go to sea duty.

Sorry to hear that, Frank.
