There is a reason I don't post photos. I can't match your first attempt on my 4th! :surrender: Nice work. How long did it take? :hatsoff:

billk · Mar 18, 2007

I worked on it about 2 weeks, on and off.

Thank you. I used yellow RIT dye with a little orange and a pinch of black in it. I then polished it with some bowstring wax that I had available. I understand a lot of you use beewax, but I could not find any at the time.
