Thankfully I finished this money cip before all the petty bickering bagan. It can be difficult to concentrate with cyber static buzzing in your ear.
Anyone else engrave anything in between arguments?

I have a Gravermeister and a newly purchased Lindsay Classic, but I find that engraving animals and game birds that I predominately push. Right now I'm doing a commission for a fellow who wants a money clip with the most beautiful African bird engraved on it. He wants a Helmeted Guinea Fowl on it. Stunning bird. ;~) When I finish it I'll post it here.

Thanks John,
I have been a fan of your work since meeting you at Ken Hurst's House.
Just couldn't believe that you did most of the work with just hand tools.(No I am not starting a tool technique fight...lol)
Thanks for posting,looking forward to the next one.

The next one will be a commission from a fellow who wants me to engrave the most beautiful African bird on a money clip. He wants a Helmeted Guinea Fowl. A "strikingly beautiful" ;~( bird.
I'll be on vacation in New England next week so I won't be able to finish it until after I get back, but I'll be sure to post it.
