paint that isn't available anymore in these day of com pliancy. Probably some lead infused house paint or something and some toxic top coat. The A 40's are a good find too. I got a beater and hope to make a few this winter.

I've been playing around with the conrad this season. Without an original and your specs prof m, I was having trouble getting the plug dialed in. A few weeks back my wife dragged me out to go antiquing and low and behold hanging on the wall was a Pichney Conrad in great condition for $10. Couldnt help myself when I found some herring the other night and had to give it a test swim. Got this little guy. Any clue as to what wood Pichney used?
