That'd be a great idea huckleberry!
Drockw im in love with your Les Paul. How much for that piece of work? All I've got right now is a Gibson Explorer in black with a white pick guard. I can't decide between the telecaster and the les paul... its tearing me apart!

Holy smokes, I had know idea...
Wow Aaron! I want that pheasant for a buckle!
Yes DrockW, yours is an art as well. Is there someplace where we can hear you play? Do you have a link to your music?
Benno, Yes, I do all the casting. Lost wax casting at this level is different than industrial sand casting-it involves a high temp plaster investment and a centrifuge verses sand and pouring. I also worked in a foundry (30 years ago). I had some good life lessons there! What metals did you work with?
Cool lamp Scott. I need three for my house. Are you taking orders?
Matt...simply awesome! Yours is an art I wish I could do!
Dan, I figured it had to be a sandblast or beading process. I just couldn't, for the life of me, figure out how the stones could be chipped without causing non-crisp edges. Thanks for giving us your secret.
Excellent work everyone! Thank you for sharing. I hope we see more!

Yeah, ive got the myspace link to one of the bands i was in. Its rock/metal music so i assume most here wont care for it but whatev[8D] I still loveplaying that type of music more thananything b/c i enjoy the technicality/challenge (probably why i love archery/hunting soo much too) of the composition.Whats funny as most people who know meas the guy who shoots all the time would never, ever realize what ive done with music!And vice versa on the people who knowme b/c of my playing. Its like i have2 personas even though im the same guy no matter what im doing, just using a differnt weapon of choice!!!
The singer was a potty mouth.He did all of the vocals, b/c icannot write that way. Nor can i draw, so props to the artists from me, cuz im terrible at anything involving a writing utencil.The recording was shotty at best on this one. I dont have any of the others or links to them thati know of. One of the other band members has them. My guitar solo at 2:35ish isnt too bad considering i was only 16 when we recorded it. Im still actually pretty proud of it, but the recording doesnt do it justice.
