Bowie Update
« on: December 09, 2003, 03:03:07 PM »
Back at it, the guard is on.  I give up on thin micarta spacers and have gone with 1/8th. red & black broken up with nickel silver, was going to use torquoise but settled on malachite wavy green. Still going to use the fossil walrus ivory capped with 1/4 nickel silver that I will dome and flute. I will top that off with a small nickel silver fluted dome that I made on a drill press with a file, ( think I'll borrow a lathe next time).  I should have this thing finished in the next couple of weeks or so.  rdjamieson@aol.com I will have pics available.
