Well, if that's the best you can afford, it will have to do.
Just kidding, the piece is stunning! All the components complement each other.
 
That is really slick Buddy! Great execution on a great pattern.
 
Alan did great. YOU did GOOD!

I like how he actually chamfered the bores for the screws. Most times they are left with a square edge, and as an ex-machinist, that's an unfinished bore. :)

Superb coloring in that mammoth. YOWZER!
 
Very nice Buddy - Alan's work makes me want to get a surface grinder! :thumbsup:
