|  Another Abalone Inlay
This one has "eyes" that look cool (after a few hits of acid).
A client wanted some of that Gold "Instant Diamond Wrap" tubing on a rod. It is not close to any thread art wrap, but it only takes 10 min. to put on, and there is really no way to fuck it up (it does not have to be aligned on any axis).
The last pic is a clam that I found in Isewan. That is the actual pattern on the shell. It was still alive, so I returned it to the sand. This pic has nothing to do with rodbuilding, but it just looked so cool.
Any new, inovative stuff at the Fred Hall show?   
Cheers,
Capt. G

nice work. Kevan Don is as overly sensitive as he is in age so he probably already forgot what he just read .

I don't think it had anything to do with the Capt. G's talent.
