You do some beautiful work.

You're not kidding. I might just have to go and have a cry over on the Pissed Off thread now, cuz I know I'll never be able to do anything like that.

This is one of the best threads I've seen on here in ten years, thanks for coming back  8) :)

Very nice details.  You like the brass accent pieces...adds very nice touches, it will be difficult to keep polished if you wish to do so.
