Hi Chuck
You are never to old to lean to do new things. Looks like you will have to have 2 projects on the go so you can quickly hide the one and whip out the other in a second or two hehehe.

Best of luckJust take your time and all will be good. !!...

Thanks for the information. We learn something new every day. The swamp kauri is a nightmate to work with but worth every second of the effort.

Hi Bill

This is going to be interesting. Looking forward to following the process. That is a nice looking block. Grain and colour looks to be very uniform which work nicely I think....

[Glenn Jennings]

Hi Joe
Man you are getting so good at these mate. This one is just brilliant. These are way to good to be stuck in a box. You need a man cave with LOTS of wall space!!!!!!...
