Pain in the slipjoint

[Rusty McDonald]

just finished this one thought I'd share It with you.
Ladder pattern, Elephant Ivory, and Bronze

Very nice! You should use bronze all the time, make it your signature look. It'd be easy, what with bronze being so soft and easy to work with. Just yanking your chain. Nice touch to make the shield bronze also.

Rusty that is nice but you left out the pain part I want to know where this pain comes from was it the nail nick they can be a pain was it the spring was it timing or all of the above. it looks good sounds like you will be testing this year. good luck. you should do fine.

The pain was all in the bronze. Not the easiest material to work with, intergrial mill relieved. And the stuff eats mill bits. Hate to see this one go.
