Pete - I have told you my views on Burl, haven't I?


It looks like little tiny agonized faces of the damned trapped in the wood.

Hey man - what is the cost of one of those Crossley Purple Heart cheese boards? Just to tide me over until I can get a guitar….

I'd be sure to only use it for good cheese, it being tone wood and all!

hahaha!! yes of course..

they start at 50 and end at 120..

but shipping would probably be 200!!!

it costs me about that to get maple in from the States..

C'mon Ace.. Get over to OZ for a well earned holiday.. You know you want to...

Been playing with shapes in the workshop..

Re: Rare as Rocking Horse Poo..

Re: Rare as Rocking Horse Poo..

That is very cool. Stair at the center and it starts to wig your eyes out. Try playing checks on that! LOL
