unique trout key chain
A fun way to use up the areas left between larger cuts. Every year people ask if we have done more trouser trouts. I grind brite and clearcoat or heat treat and clearcoat. As an added benefit, the two lower rear fins will pop a beer cap. Very important!...............Russ K.

Re: unique trout key chain
I used a cheap stamp die set from Harbor Freight. Hard to get the letters straight though. You can either get a single stamp made or make a jig. I really thought I was in trouble when a rather prim looking older Lady took one look in the basket where all the key chains were, let out a shriek, and ran to her dignified but very large husband. I thought ,Wonderful, now I have offended her and her husband will come pound me! They both came back and he pulled out his wallet and bought a dozen for his fishing buddies..............Russ K.

I had forgotten about this post. You can also use several different sizes and levels of detail to make a Fish Wreath. Very popular during the holidays.........RK

Re: unique trout key chain
Us newbies digging around in here looking for ideas, knowledge, information and trying to learn find the "old" stuff pretty interesting!
Thanks to you guys and gals that have been doing this awhile and sharing your knowledge we have something to start from as well bring some of the old shares back to life!
Neat idea on the wreath!
Thanks again!
Carl
