Thanks for noticing Jim. I actually spent a bit more time on "foot prep" on this guide. Alot more than I usually do.

That Looks really great Michael. Quality, rich and not over done. I like guide work like this because it doesnt detrack from the thread art which I am sure you did something special as usual

Uh, did you use Black thread for the overwrap? You listed only 2 colors, and I see 3? Are those NCP threads? I'm confused, more information. lol. Nice job.

Thanks... I TRY to learn from what I see on this page. (I'm going to TRY to not glob the finish on this, see if I learn anything) Billy, Black ain't a color!!!Its the only non-color ever. Why? I dunno, but black doesn't exist. Black is just a darkened shade of grey like the clouds and rain I've been seeing and working in for 8 days!!!!!!!!!!


I swear, I just now saw blue sky(an actual color) Wait.........the sun just came out, I need to go look at it and dry out my boots!
