Nice one neighbor. I like that a lot.

Oh No, mister! You're doing some very fine work on your own! I've been patiently waiting for you to work up those wings since you teased me with it last month! Every artist has their own hand and *I* want to see what you can do. Call it a challenge even *evil grin*Quote:

Ok seriously, you are going to have to cut it out or else start getting prepared for me to show up at your door and demand that you teach me how to do that.
:rock:
Suhhh...weeetttt!
The colors, the design, the execution. All perfectly matched to produce one heck of gorgeous result.
Very well done indeed.
Amazing!!! How do you do these?!? They're gorgeous!
That candy is so SWEET it makes my teeth HURT !!!!!!!!!!! :dropjaw:
Very nice!!! And I like the way you can see the razor through the scales!
Michael.
:eek: Thanks! Now I have drool all over me and my desk! ;)
Exquisite work. :bow I've seen you other work and highly enjoy your functional are. There's a new kid on the block and he is producing a new class of razor restores!
Time to hand a shingle and make your restores available to the rest of us!
Wow those scales are beautiful, you have a gift.
There are not many razors that I am jealous of, your razors make me green with envy.

Well I luckily managed to find a back up of the original AI files while preparing my computer for a fresh install of Win7. I'll mock up something and post up the design in a bit. Looking at it, they might be too intricate for the purpose considering it was initially designed to be 6 inches by 18 not .75x6.Quote:

This will be some big scales though. I hope I have a blade that will fit well. About 1.5" at the wedge end.
I think that you may be correct. That may be just a bit daunting for a first project. Are you looking at doing a straight metal scale with a cutout background, or an overlay/inlay on top of a set of wooden scales??Quote:

We're still working on the website, so I'll let everyone know when it's up and running.
cheers,
Probably the latter. I might use that design as an engraving in wood and inlay some wire into it instead.Quote:

Holy crap!
Damn, we've got some serious craftsmen on this board. That's really, REALLY amazing.
I want one.
Well you have a gift of making something that beautiful.
I'm amazed. Really unique and nice!
Beautiful work!
The Celtic themes are close to my heart as well, and you do them justice!
Can't wait to see what's next!
Although Shutterbug is a talented photographer......the photos don't do it justice. The razors all have a warmth, for lack of another word, in person.
Beautiful work,and a heck of a nice guy.
DUDE... YES
THAT IS AWESOME!!
