nice! something tells me you could have fun with a CNC.

Very fine craftsmanship! Certainly a more productive way to spend a weekend than with chips and dip. :)

Wow. Box is exceptional. Carving is outstanding. Well crafted!

That was cool. I like the inlay designs as well. Lots of talented folks on this board!

That is some exceptionally fine work. I'm happy when I can cut a board to the right length. That is artistry.

Hmm... Lagavulin? After finishing a bottle of Laphroaig, I've developed an appreciation for peat. How would you compare the two?
