    I see sadness in Leo's eyes. I believe he regrets his choice of chew. -Jeff

    Looks like about a 1/2" roundover bite. When you gonna post the tutorial pics? And aren't you supposed to put the finish on AFTER all the machining?

    I've heard that with the new carbide nylabones, you can reshape the cutting edges of your canine's, uh canines...

    I have a Leo too. He hasn't done that. Yet. He's 4, but he's a Lab, so I guess that's like being, what, 4 minutes old?
    Where did I put that tape measure...

    I see that as more of a smug, maybe even arrogent look. Like he's about to say something like, "did you ever doubt I could do it?"

    So how far does he carve on a bag of dog food? Should this be in the power tools section?

    Multiply that by three.

    That would be like not letting the Kids in the house. I'll put up with the occasional chewed object.

    Bob's right. I'll keep the pooch and repair the inanimates.

    My dogs couldn't reach that high. More of a cambriol leg attacker. I think they have a prefference for cherry.

    Robert:

    Having 2 teenagers. I am not sure that I see not letting them in house as all that bad of an idea. My dogs have done similar but they too like leg of tables. Those pups are lucky I am not my dad 'cause if one of his dogs had done that, that stick in the ground in the good dog's pic, would be the marker where pops would be digging the dogs final resting place.

    hmmmm You may have a point there Mike. Not having any kids of my own i don't know for sure but I'm quite sure there are times you would like to banish them to the dog run
