Thanks Mike but it is about 5 different orders. All different materials from wood to resins. I am still working on the wood order. 6 coats of CA than flat it out and off to engraving, than color fill followed by another 6 coats of CA. Reminder to self make sure you costs cover all of the CA bottles.

Congrats Alan! 2000 i'm wondering if they were all made on the one lathe.

 

[ashaw]

Yes one lathe was only used. I am now looking at two more lathes. If I get the next project I will need to expand my shop in equipment and people.
