Oh, these are gorgeous! Not only is each one exquisite but you have the true touch of an artiste...you display each one in such a perfect setting.

I still am getting chills from the crazy lace. It is beyond-words beautiful.

Thank you so much for sharing.

And, of course, the lace. But Brenda is also a beauty. Adrian

Hey Brian, your cabs are looking great. Can't pick a favorite, they all have a great shape and shine, along with some nice choices of cuts. Can you grind off all four corners of the pet wood? That would take care of the fracture.
I haven't been around much lately, did you get your grinder yet?
