Coppersmith Barlow arrived today. Just in time to help celebrate a great evening in good company with my Radio jack, a nice cigar (Aurora 100 yr anniversary) and beer (Goose Island Ten Hills Pale Ale)

Thanks again Erik! A very generous giveaway. I come from a family whose history includes copper smiths (in whose homage I made the copper ash tray) - so this is especially appropriate and wonderful.
