    Default Sometimes it's good to get the rejects.

    My wife Marla is back to casting feathers blanks after stopping for a year and a half while we moved from Western Canada to the Prairies. This Zen was destined for a reseller except there was a leak while in the mould and the tube got a fair bit of resin inside. Can't sell it because trying to get the cured resin out will scratch up the inside of the tube a little. I claimed it and turned it for myself. I'm fine with a few never to be seen inner scratches. It is a Zen in Black Titanium, the feathers are Duck, Pheasant and Rooster. The black background is actually the black feathers from a Silver Pheasant not paint.

    With rejects as good as this, you would be hoping for a few more bugger-ups
    Nice work both of you.

    Knowing your work MIK I'm sure you will.


    Thanks for the complements everyone. I knew this would be gorgeous so couldn't let it go to the dump like the usual unsellable ones with bubbles, and it is always preferred to have perfect ones to sell rather than hope foe a bad one occasionally. Marla gives me a discount on good ones.
