The man's obviously an artist, but I also have to say that there is an art to catching the art in a photograph. Look at the lighting... the wood spun from the drill bit... Just marvelous.

hamerhead Posted March 6, 2018 Posted March 6, 2018 The way the flame fans out really sets it apart. That looks great.

hamerhead Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 It's more like a rail. A boss is a raised ornamentation or knoblike protrusion.

I know I can make at least two out of three happen. And it ain't the Gretsky jersey.
kizanski Posted March 10, 2018 Author Posted March 10, 2018 I got an email from Trish on Thursday asking what neck carve I would like. It seems Mike is ready to start shaping. Years ago, I had the pleasure of playing @phoenix's Standard which had a slew of custom order options, one of which was the neck carve which was very large - '58 Gibson-like - but with a slight V to it. I had had a '59 Junior which had a very similar feel to it, so I said that's what I would like, if possible. While that's going on, I'll just leave this here.
hamerhead Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 That's either a tiny grinder or Trish is a very happy woman.
