Superb Bob definitely a winner in my eyes. The extra stripe I would have not noticed as it looks as though it should be there. Great choice of wood and also great finish. Who's plans is it made from.
What is the next project or is it a case of wait and see, whatever it is look forward to it.

Yes I did go to the show had a good time talking to alot of people and had a good look around the trade stands, and yes spent some money as you do at these events.

G'day Bob,
Excellent workmanship as usual,I am impressed how you can switch from intarsia to model making & dont miss a beat. I don't know how you keep so many project's going at the same time.
I have drama's with one at a time.
Looking foreward to the Indian,


Regard's Jim.
