| The "Lightning Rod"
I built this for SCsurfishing.com's raffle. GUSA SW 70M. I've had this lightning shot I've been wanting to try and inlay, It's my favorite so far. Pictures dont do it justice in person it looks like you would be electricuted if you grabbed it

Damn, William, this is my fav one yet.  
I was playing around with the sky background--I want mine with a little purple in the background.
If you make me one, it won't shock me if I touch it, will it?

Hey Bill, maybe you and Capt. G can collaborate on a project. 'Caus I believe you CAN teach an old dawg new tricks. Especially when they're as creative as you. I like this one a lot.
