Sent Bob a note yesterday. He replied he's gotten a new job that keeps him busy and he hasn't had a lot time for the forums lately. At least he's back to work.

Tracy that is a great tutorial and I agree etching is one of those techniques that may be under utilized. Admitedly, I never thought of etching anything but a maker's mark! That's what's so good about this forum, all you folks share so many cool ideas. I think you may have helped me with my own problem with developing stencils; we'll see, eh?

I have to say too, that your sense of humor is refreshing. I enjoyed reading your tutorial because you sound like a human being who has a good time doing whatever you're doing. I got a kick out of the multiple etched hammers!

Thanks, I hope lots of people use this. You've done a great job. Now on to the sheath tutorial!
