I suppose if life gives you turkey farmers, you need to engrave turkey heads!  :cry:

I was in Kirriemuir a couple of weekends ago, ended up in Bruce Walker's engraving studio having a chat with him - he had some lovely bits of cullet - but was "complaining" that they are unbelievably hard to come by - basically, he had to wait until a pot cracked somewhere, then dive in with a request for bits of the contents.

It's very reassuring to hear you have 6 bits sitting on your windowsill.... the world is waiting with baited breath for you to transform them.......
Cheers, Sue M. (she/her)

Earth without art is just eh.

indeed, but he will be happy and that makes me happy. Then I have to do a lift shaft and after that a macro cross section through a duel tandem pipe weld of a 52" oil pipe..... c'est la vie! But variety is good and at least I am engraving one of each subject and not 200 like Peter!!!
So here is something for you to drool over, and then I have to get back to work.
Have a great weekend everyone  :sun:
ps, I didn't know Bruce so it was nice to see a different engravers work. :-)
If there is no wind.....ROW.
