I understand what you are saying but......"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder", does it not? Most of these Customs ARE a collaboration! It is a collaboration between the maker and the person the Custom is being made for!

Good one Richard. In my last post I did use the word "most"!

Mike I see your point also. Most people I have known enjoy and therefore develop the most skill in one aspect of making the tool/work of art. By sharing each others strong points a better result could be achieved.
