Great job Bob:2tsup::2tsup::2tsup:. Up to your usual standard.

What have you planned to do next.

I am 75% of the way through my first Intarsia piece I saw the pattern and thought that it lends its self to be made into a clock.

Bob it is mice with cheese I found while searching for something else. Where the top hole is is where the clock is going and will fit to a stand. Just hope it turns out 1/2 as good as yours.

Bob, The Chopper is briliant, I have been a motor cycle enthusiast for year's. I've rode a few & fell off quite a few. But's that's a different story. I think your motorcycle is terrific
You have done well as usual.
Keep up the good work.
I am waiting to see your truck & how you finish it. It seem's to good to leave in the back of the shed.
Regard's Jim:2tsup:
