Good thing you finally finished this one. If I saw it lying in your shop again it would've found it's way into my pocket.

Beautiful work, Hans!

That is definitely a beautiful piece of work! I have looked just about everywhere I can think of to buy some of tha Chittam Burl with no luck. Am I just not looking in the right place or is it a very well kept secret? ????
Cheers

Wow, that's a beauty Hans! It's like it's wrinkled, burning and crying all at the same time!

Not sure I completely understand the comparison but, because of the "Wow, that's a beauty" I will take that as a complement :biggrin:
