So Andrew! Attachment 259463

I did without the Texas 2-band for half a year so you could measure, etc?? Best I can do!

Ya I have pics with measurements. They were on my phone, but then I ran out of space on it. Nothing would update unless I did something, so I uploaded all my pics to google images. I don't know where they go, but they're not on my phone anymore. I can still get them just have to futz around a bit until I find them.

I know, I'm a let down....

Basing this on a certain Texas brush that's in my head. Took pictures of it when it was here, but google images has that in a rain cloud, or snow cloud maybe and it's no where in my reach. So, to my head files I go.

I hate you, I hate you, I hate you. Can I have it?

That was seriously contemplated. I did fool around with the concept on some homework pieces thinking a combination of carving and scrimshaw. The complication is a little beyond my skill set at this time.
Right now I am contemplating the liner for my broken scale. The trouble I am having is liner thickness. I have only one size of copper for the liner, so the big question is;

Does this liner make me look fat?

It brings the total thickness to 0.150.
I am worried it will be too much and I am pondering putting this on the back burner until I can get some thinner copper.

Aren't you a moderator???? I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to ask that....

Or is this like when I see cops talking on their phones and running red lights at the same time?

Honestly, from this vantage point it does look a bit thick. Looking at the overall thickness, you do look a tee bit fat.

Beefy it is !

Please, at my age I'm allowed a few petulant child reactions when I see something that excites my greedy needs.

This brush is LONG spoken-for, I assure you.

I want. Send to ME!
