Hard to believe after all this time this is the first for you. Sure doesn't look like a first. Good job.

Doing good basecircle. I'm afraid it's been way too long since I visited this site. Gotta get back into it though. Still going strong with my CNC stuff, just not posting. My latest ventures is Pet Caskets and headstones. Both using my Shark to compliment the items I'm making. Still, after 5 years, I've yet to try my probe, but someday, if it hasn't corroded into a single piece. A friend that sculpts small infants did a baby face for me, and wanted the probe to copy it so I could include the face on some of my carvings. So, we'll see. Good hearing from you, and keep em coming, I'm back. ;)
