"The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry." -Robert Burns
With apologies to John Steinbeck I call this posting : Of Mice and <s>Men</s> Pen . My plan to convert the Eagleised blank into a fine writing instrument didn't go awry and actually went quite well.
This unique WAVE blank was provided by Eagle and I've held it with me for far too long until now(I was scared to use it). Finally found some courage and nerve to finally get around and put the blank into practice. To say that I was intimidated to "turn" the piece is an understatement. It takes a lot of time and talent to put the blank together and I certainly did not want to screw it up. I must have of turned this blank in my "mind" a hundred times to envision what I must carefully do in order "nail" it. Eagle provided plenty of advice and encouragement. He just told me to do it and don't be afraid. "You can always get another one". And so, with my fear and insecurity behind me, this is what I came out with.
I look forward to your critique as to whether it meets your approval , your scorn [B)], or indifference [)] Fire away, for my IAP windows and doors remain "unlocked" to those that wish to "play" here.
