Boy you have been busy. You must have a fortune in Jungle Cock Eyes. Looks great Gerry. My graduation present was a set of papers for enlistment in the NAVY. Actually I had a choice, I could have opted for a free stay at the barred hotel. Not sure if I maded the smart choice. LOL What is under the marbling. Wood or Cork or other?

Underneath that Putterized surface is some truly unique high end cork Wink that I got from Billy. The stuff is so good that it only requires about a pound of filler to get a smooth enough surface for marbeling. Smile!

"it only requires about a pound of filler" - LOL!!!!!!! Gotta love extra select Amtak cork rings. What a waste, I'm glad you found a use for it.
