Yeh Dave, I think you are right. I been sittin here looking at the pattern I drew and wondering if I wasn't just a little overambitious on the carving

[Kid Terico]

GB dont worry about it. The worst that happens is it will take longer. Go for it. KT

[JD Alan]

Dave, not to hijack this thread (well, sort of) the pictures of your shop on your website are great. That machine you have for your makers stamp looks like it could press a knife though a car!

[Gun Butcher]

KT, its been a long time since I did any serious carving but what the hey. Its like riding a bicycle...  right

[Kid Terico]

Excuse me GB, I,m a little older than you but whats a bicycle?    KT

[Gun Butcher]

    Good one

[Gun Butcher]

  I think its what I just fell off of trying to figure out where to start on this carving

[Dave Cole]

Well, here is my first attempt at Filigree work.I used gold colored deerskin for my background.I also did two color lacing on this one.This is the first time in about 10 years that I have done any Sheridan style carving. Dave

[Kid Terico]

Dave , Thats a awesome piece of art work and leather workmenship. Lacing really accents it. Great all around rig. You get----- for a grade.    KT

Dave, the two-color lace is interesting. It makes that holster even more striking. Nice.

[Gun Butcher]

 Dave, great job man. That two color lace is a killer addition to that rig, I love it.  Carving is a real bear when you ain't done it for awhile Huh

My new rig is coming. Just have to work for a few days and it cuts into my playtime.
