Cool stuff out of the shop Ed. Probably the distractions that really slow down the projects. Maybe a pheasant feather pattern with rainbow anodizing on the next one.
Take care, Craig |

Looks cool Ed. Great imagination. Reminds me of a thread I seen somewhere where someone made scales for a knife that were just like fish scales. I've been looking for that thread for a while now and can't seem to find it.

Cool, Ed-really like the contrast of the gold and black. Reminds me of a koi fish for some reason.
Boatbuilder-not sure if this is the one you were thinking of, but pretty neat and definitely has fish scales. http://paleoplanet69529.yuku.com/top.../Fillet-O-Fish Jeremy |

No secrets here! I just stumble my way through things....usually wasting a bunch of material along the way!

Hi Sam!
Went to a specialist in Kalispell, MT about a week ago. He did an "endoscopically guided ultrasound", basically an ultrasound from the inside out. He said that all my internals look good, and that he thinks my pain is "muscular/skeletal". Now he's sending me to another Doc who specializes in that. I am feeling a bit better....still in pain most of the time, but I just keep plodding along until it make me sit or lay down. Still have the lung issues going on too....but good news on that front....my last CT in late Sept showed that the "nodules" in my lungs had stayed the same, and in some cases shrank. So now I'm on treatments every 21 days through the end of the year. In Jan I'm scheduled for another CT to see where things are, and that will determine how things go from there. Take Care Pal! __________________ WWW.CAFFREYKNIVES.NET Caffreyknives@gmail.com "Every CHOICE has a CONSEQUENCE, and all your CONSEQUENCES are a result of your CHOICES." |
