    Talking ViDEO: Grizz Bridge Bug-Net and Other Ramblings

    Bug season has flown and buzzed away.....for most of us.
    Now is a good time to think about getting one on the Grizz Bridge or similar design. This one I crafted based on Grizz and Hangouts designs I saw on their videos. Wanted it light...this is 7 ounces.

    Been some bug-net action on here of late.
    Fronkey did a fantastic one for gathered end hammys and seemed folks are and were in dire need of bug protection.
    The Bridge is a different beast. So this is what I came up with and not without some noggin scratching!

    Also....I get asked quite a bit what camera I use so I flaunt the good ol' Canon SD960 IS.

    Take a look at my melanoma stitches and scar and meat bump)))))))))))

    All is well and secure in sector seven,
    Shug

    I do so love the Shug video season. Summer truly was too long without them.

    It's cheating if you don't watch the video first!

    Shug, you do what you want when it comes to answering (or not answering) every comment... that's what makes you Shug and makes you awesome!

    Thanks for the vid and keep on truckin'

    Happy Hangin'

    Now you did it. Not only is it detailed and informative, but you invited all 1,862,118,965,746.33 followers to help you achieve the elusive carpal tunnel syndrome.
    Now, how are you going to reply to them all?
    Darn. Don't answer this. I'm not going to be responsible for "the Shug" not making the next hang.
    Enjoy and have fun with your family, before they have fun without you

    Shug, thanks for the video. I'll not press you with more questions. Great work on the bugnet. I hope and pray that the surgery was successful and all that is needed. Glad you're back to making videoes.

    Nice to see you this morning Shug. Thanks for the info. Nah, you don't have to reply to all my replies. Only if you have something to say. We know you're listening!! I'm really happy you recieved a healthy report on that melanoma.
    We'll miss seeing you next week, but do understand!
