Those look great. I might have to try my hand at something like that.
By the way, what tartan is that in the pic? I love the colors.

Hmm.. someone has been digging in last years posts again. The tartan is a medium weight wool I picked up at a thrift store. My daughter has a kilt from it.

The ironwood pin looks fantastic!

Where do you find the time for all this? I can't seem to ever get anything done.

BT I am single, have one T.V. station and my Daughter likes to help me in the shop. You know, fetching band-aids, water, looking for lost tools and components.

Here is todays roughed out five

I'm waiting for some nice pins and clasps to arrive to finish the pins on these.

Those aren't the only things I've been working on. I'd estimate I have about six hours in them so far. But I also have two investments and my pouring temperature set. That dramatically shortens future build times.

I'll save it for the next kilt night. If I have a Guinness in one hand I'll still be able to fish it out of my sporran with my other.

Those are simply amazing, the talent that some of the people on this site have never ceases to amaze and drive me to envy. Per chance will any of them be for sell?
