Hard to say Goodbye

04-16-2010, 10:51 PM

When you build things with your own 2 hands from scratch its one of the most gratifying feelings when it all comes together and turns out the way you envisioned. The down side to what I do is I have to take those items and send them off when completed. Every now and then it gets really hard and this is one of those times. As long as it took me to get these shipped to Ed, he probably thought I was going to keep them.

Well they are packed snug as a bug in a rug and sitting in a cold dark truck right now instead of in my cooler. Soon they will be in their new home.

That's the only thing that keeps me shipping, I always have more to work on

The Wenge is funny wood to work with the grain is very deep but seals up nice.
Working on some photos so look for some next week.
