Andrew the pieces may be small the degree of difficulty high then you have to go and set the bar on the high jump to 7 foot using that software to show the pen.

These days my undercarriage does not fold up very high when I go to jump hurdles in fact I usually walk around my trailer when hooking up been known to bark my shins in the past in between the draw bar.

The colours are almost crayon like the setting in a park, I just recovered from a visit to the Optometrist try this no this which looks best.

So your pen is fun intricate and worthwhile for the setting up glueing finishing it was all worthwhile IMHO the 2/3 image different and fetching.

Kind regards Peter.:iknow::claps:

Wow - your eyes must ache after trying to piece that lot together! Who's Ernie?

Every one knows Errnie ~ he drove the fastest milk cart in the West (or so the song goes). On a more serious note, Ernie is based at Bear Tooth Woods, Colorado Springs and Ken is based at Kallenshaan Woods outside Las Vegas. They are both great people to deal with and always willing to help and offer advice. Ken makes the inlays whilst Ernie makes laminated pen blanks a cut above the rest. Kind regards. Fiona
