Title: Did You Get A ...?
Post by: ber643 on June 20, 2011, 07:25:00 AM
TradGang belt and buckle that larry Surtees made and generously offered on a number of the St. Jude bidding forums this year?

Well I was lucky enough to win one, and it looks great! I took a quick close-up of it this AM, (hoping I was guessing right - LOL). It came out pretty good IMO:

Might just be another item you perhaps want to try harder to win next year - just a thought    :archer:

Bernie,
That just looks "righteous" on those six-pack abs too! LOL. I'm afraid when I catch up to you my gut may be a 12- pack (or even a case)
Congrats.

LOL - thanks, guys but I think perhaps I must have unconsciously "sucked it up" just to tilt the buckle toward the lens better.

LOL - some of my best friends are "Keggers", Mudd.

Larry really does work nice with his leather craft, doesn't he, LONGSTYKES? I also have one of his key ring tabs made of Benjy's Al G. Gator, that Benjy sent me. Very nice.

You old fellow Jarhead.  You keep yourself trim  enough to showoff that buckle.  No muffin top or Dunlop for you.

I was wondering what in the world became of this thread. I couldn't seem to find it for awhile there. Of course sometimes I can't find things in my own house -      :D  

I've had a lot of nice comments about the TG belt/buckle this past week, and I wear (alternate) some pretty fancy ones all the time. One a handsome hand carved Elk, on Elk burr, by Frank and Shell, and one a beautiful, hand painted Big Horn Sheep (also on an Elk burr). That one is an old, high glossed one that is signed and dated and I found in a flea market. Now I'll alternate the three of them, for the children of St. Jude.
