Mike. This is coming along a treat. Certainly an interesting, and unique variation. Your metal work shows the same skill and care, as you fine detail work with plastic.
You don’t get wiser as you get older. You just run out of stupid things to do.

In one of my favorite movies, "Charade," James Coburn scolds Cary Grant, "You Greenhorn!" That's what I hear when I see this kind of remarkable work here and so often elsewhere on RCTW. ColemanCollector, you are so skilled!
Sigh...

Thank you Stormbringer, Tankme, Mr. Bix, and the HDP!
I'm still a bit shocked that things went to plan on these. The normal process in my shop is botch attempt 1, attempt 2 is better but rough but the technique has been learned, attempt 3 is worse than attempt 1, and finally attempt 4 is good. Then time to make the second one. Rinse and repeat the normal process.
"Magic Mike" is something I have most definitely never been called...
Mike (not magic)
