At the last meeting we voted to do a book of our members and their work. I will be putting the book together. I'm just wondering how many of you are planning to submit pictures.
Bill will be sending out letters to every-one with what you need to send to me. Just trying to get an estimated #.
Thanks all
Andy

Don't give up on me Andy! I am almost finished with the last knife. I am waiting for the Gunkote that should be here tomorrow. Then I will take some pics and get it in the mail. Sorry it has taken me so long. Thats the bad thing I guess doing mostly custom work is I make it and it's gone. Now I am taking more pictures.

Andy,
I am finished with the knife, the gunkote was baked on and I finished it today! As soon as someone gets home to take my picture I should have everything together. Hopefully out in the mail tomorrow.
One of the pictuers does not have the same resolution, fairly low resolution in fact. I hope that wont be too much of a problem. Maybe you could make that picture small in size I don't know. It was from I knife I sold maybe 6 months ago so no chance of getting to take more pictures of it.
Thanks for being patient with the new guy. Ha
