Very nice!! Congrats on a great piece. Sweet work as always, Tyger!

Thank you, Mickey, for your kind compliment.

Love those pictures, Mark. Excelent! I'm going to have to try out this side-sighting technique

Also worth mentioning is that the backs of the buckles are so awesome, because the fabrication evidence is still there!

Here's a little bit of the back of my Chi Rho buckle; kind-of a crappy picture, but I'll take better ones later:




And Mark, Don't worry- The Madness will never pass. :cthulhusmiley:

I'm about to go get me a nice gyro plate from this excelent Greek place, near my house.

I plan to sing and dance for my meal.

Nice. Literally?

I am going to work on my fish poetry, finish my Northwoods Grand Slam (walleye, pike, bass) buckle, then get dressed for an art exhibit at the old Cotton Exchange. First time wearing my O'Farrell tartan (a Royal Stewart variant, according to Matt Newsome.. For the relatively short period of time that O'Farrells wore kits, the kilt was solid vermillion). Gotta decide what buckle to wear. Thinking my Saltire one will do.

David must be doing one of the 25 things that are on his list!

I got started on one of them, but before I did that, I did one of the wildest, most bizarre things anybody has ever done:


I logged out of XMtS and went outside to weed the flowerbed.
Shhhh, don't tell anybody.
There was a bunch of chickweed and clover in it, plus the dead branches of my mums from last year.


I hereby forbid any more off-topic discussion.


RR, how was that gyro?

Yep. That's me, alright.


How are the fish?

Fine! :stamps foot:





Gorgeous buckle!! Incredible work, Tyger!

All this talk of cheep thistle buckles and troublesome saw blades is, well troubling!

A true sign of the times we live in, wouldn't you say? I mean, what's next? All metal, handwrought sporrans and head-on badger buckles? 100% coton kilts and worsted wool tshirts?

Madness!
