    Been a little over a year. Say 1.17 to get rid of the decimal number! So 7141.83+1.17=7,143

    Just over 1 year. 7143 + 1 = 7,144 (And much thanks for the help along the way)

    I think it would be 12 years and 5 months since I first learn to cast.
    7144 + 12.41666667 = 7156.41666667 LOL

    Late 79 I started casting round balls for a front loader. May have been a few years where I didn't cast any, but then I invested in fishing molds, ended up with 4-5 of those.

    Call it 35 years total.

    5414 + 35

    =5449

    That is getting up there.

    That Mouldy maker done it at post 329.

    Just a redneck that flirted with the school marm instead of learning how to add.

    Somehow he lost almost 2,000 years.

    Must have gone to the same school as many of our politicians.

    Getting back on track, we were at 7198 with SmokeyWolf. Adding 33 for Moldmaker,35 for Ghosthawk, and 36 for me brings us up to 7302 cumulative years.
