Historic Pine Sierras
Both out of the Historic FTG Pine tree, it was planted in 1905 , it was a well known landmark and popular meeting place, decorated for Christmas, and utilized for festivals to provide shade, was cut down in 2001 after it was discovered the tree was diseased and too dangerous to be left standing, I was able to salvage two logs off a branch. One sierra is Black Titanium, the other is a standard chrome Sierra. Amos

Nice laser work!
When all is said and done, there is usually a whole lot more said than done.

Thanks again Darren, if anyone is thinking about a Laser Engraver then PM me for advice, I have learnt a lot about the Laser Engravers AFTER I purchased one,
no I don't want to sell you one, in fact I think I don't want to be an agent even for the one I have,
unless I could Guarantee good service. They are a good thing to have, but back up and service is paramount and you don't get it with el cheapos. Amos
