You are most definitely the man. Artist in the wild. Such creativity. Thanks for showing your art here,gfleet
 
Thanks for the compliments guys! Hope it gives others ideas. I sometimes wish I was as technically talented as some of you. I often have great ideas, and cant quite pull it off as well as I’d like. It’s always ‘rustic’ a bit rough around the edges…. Wait! I think that describes me! The fact I cut my own hair, wear socks that don’t match… and I can rarely show my hands in pictures holding things because they are so often caked with super glue and ivory dust. hmmm I think I’m on to something here.
 
Cool use of a gator tooth Miles, I think that is the first time I've seen one used like that.
