    That is truly beautiful...Do you do the engraving by hand?

    How much time do you have into each of those rods???

    Glad you are enjoying the pics everybody.

    Ned, yes I do all of the engraving by hand. I do my best NOT to figure the hours I put into these rods, it would probably be a little bit depressing!

    Fabulous work, Bill. I, too am very glad you figured out how to post photos. Thank You!! The graver work is some of the best I've seen, and I've seen lots, It's becoming a lost art, and we all owe a debt of thanks to thost like you who are keeping it alive.
    Your skill is quite amazing. My hat's off to you...............ModocDan

    Incredible work!

    An artist from Bozeman MT was visiting AK to teach a seminar and the bumper sticker on his traveling tool case was a classic; "Be an artist, you too can make $20-$40 per week!"
