Perhaps these . ..

Beautiful!

 

[pdib]

And here's a couple that don't look like much at this stage. The one could use some finish to bring out the gorgeous but subtle intricacies.

The other could use some disclosure. Both will be ding-dang rootin'-tootin' sweet mods tho.

Stunning pair Beck! I love the pattern on the Punch, it has a concaveness thing going on, very cool

KaySo . .. I guess it's no secret that Becky's getting 2 mods this run.

OMG OMG OMG GORGEOUS!!!!!!

I take it that's your pair Tami

They're going to be gorgeous

Can't wait to see the one on the left with a finish but that masking tape, well...

I think I need a bigger block

The Giggy is going to be an awesome beast, congrats Mike! The granite looks phenomenal too

Your really stretching your wings on this run P, lookin' good

 

[pdib]

those aren't both for Tami. I was just pairing them up . .. . . ummm .. . to be clever

(so I could get back to work faster)

that one is a buckeye that I snatched up a couple of amphibian episodes ago. Ernest was looking for a piece just after I snatched it (like a day after), and IIRC he was describing it to a T. So, I says, "whadya think of this one?" I says, and he says like . .. "yeah!" (like that). And then he had to hold off a couple runs because monkeys stole his baby and a lemur ate his homework. I've been real eager to see how my little "snatchthatup!!" block turns out.

Tis all good, I just wanted to say "Tamis pair"

I'm looking forward to seeing the Gigmonster after it gets shaped and all curvy like

 

[Gigdujour]

WOW!! Everything looks awesome Peter [emoji3] With the squonk hole one mine, I'm seeing what appears to be an apish creature preparing to chomp on something (one) [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]


Master of Bassets...and not much else

 

[e30ernest]

It looks stunning already!

I'm sure it will look fabulous Gig! I'll be waiting for your final verdict after using it.

 

[Tamer El-Meehy]

I wonder what they would look like semi-finished. I like the "somewhat raw" look. (Umm..rephrased from "I like my wood raw")

Come to think of it I wonder how the Gigmonster would look with a hole a la Doffy.

 

[beckdg]

Was just thinking of a name for this new mod.

And I DO think it should include Gig.

Just sayin'

Can't wait to see that one finished.

Mine look pretty good, too.

And Tami's et all.

Brian I just love you, wake me up with Steven Tyler, gonna be a good day.

 

[pdib]

been fiddling with the SS wire builds (not today, but here and there). Trying to refine my perfect config. for this wire. Of course, it appears that 25ga wire would be the string to pluck if'n I'm gonna get this flagpole cat to meow. So, I ordered me up some (. . . me sum up? . . . up me some? ).

now isn't that interesting?

(it is if you know what I know most folks don't know)

I'm reminded of a British comedian called Peter Kay, relating his father's first experience of food in a foreign country:

but that masking tape, well...

Any idea how hard it is to do the machine work on masking tape? He had to find just the correct sequence of operations, correct bit, correct pressure, correct amount to drill at a time, etc. without ruining it. And once he did, had to do a little drilling at a time (I mean a little bit), remove the bit from it, clean masking tape shavings, lube, repeat. I sent in 4 blocks of masking tape and I think he has 1 left untouched. Too keep from going broke <===I jest....well kinda sort of....I knew going into something off the wall there would be mountains to hurdle....and I would not expect them to be hurdled for free....this is Peters living after all===< and to not hamper progress on everyone else's Pinches I will most likely do the final finishing. That is assuming insurmountable hurdles aren't encountered from this stage on causing it to be a write off on my part. <==Which would suck, but nothing ventured nothing gained

EDIT....Actually I had 3 blocks of masking tape drop shipped but they sent 4 now that I think about it

My curiousity is definitely at a high level!! Really looking forward to seeing how this project turns out
