    Man, nessmuck! I sometimes wish I could do that!

    My work is more often invisible as I finish. Apart to-day and back together to-morrow......

    Smoking job on that Camaro! Love the colour. And the spray booth!
    And why do they build cars around the heater box Tom? That's quite the deep dive.

    My. Issan is like that Tom. The entire dash has to come out to get to the heater box/heater core. Crossing my fingers that it never needs done as long as i own it. I seen a you tube video of someone pulling one out. Crazy!

    I believe that my brother's RAV 4 was like that. His air filter was so plugged (he lived in the country with gravel roads) that he said the air wouldn't flow so he and a friend got it all torn apart, removed the filter and didn't replace it.

    While probably not the correct thing to do, my brother felt that for all the years before they started adding the fancy filters he'd gotten by just fine without them before and he could get by without them then.

    Love the color nessmuck, hopefully we get more pictures when she’s put together.

    Got it done, reluctantly satisfied with the blade finish. I know I’m capable of much better but it was time to call it quits.
    Took a nice edge but my honing is apparently rusty as it could have been a more comfortable shave. Next is a makers mark still fooling with some ideas...

    I have a bunch of white sandpaper and specific mops just for working with bone.. Each to their own but i am not a fan of the fat/oil in bone. I have restored bone scales before to a beautiful powder white and then covered them in mineral oil only to watch it seep into the bone, it haunts me

    Really nice work, that wedge is spot on and the scales look great.
