    Did you spend your anniversary making brushes because you forgot what day it was ?
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    Oh! Allmost sorry I asked. Do you keep those around still? No wonder why you toss the Palmeras in a drawer. She won't think you care about them!

    Sorry to see the fail. Looks like you have a good remedy for it. Boy I would hate to post some of my fails. A couple were pretty ugly. I think one of them even included some blood on it too. Thats why, when I have a fail I don't take pictures, I look around and see if anyone saw me do it and then gently place it in the bottom of the scrap bucket.
    Keep us posted though. It looks as though it will take an interesting turn!!
    Good luck.

    Had about a half hour today while my 2 girls were napping. I got the handle trued up, changed the top profile a bit, and got a hidden bark void filled with CA. I still need to cap the end, I'm still thinking Tagua nut but I might do Buff horn. We'll see how I'm feeling tomorrow about it.

    I'll post it when I get to it. I've been sucking in marine teak oil using a vacuum chamber. It's been working well. Let that cure for a week, Then a sanding sealer, friction polish, ren wax.
