Honey Pot Holder
« on: April 11, 2012, 08:37:22 pm »
Hello,
I've been doing some practice inlay pieces after I was given the tools to do mother of pearl inlays from someone who does beautiful inlays for a banjo maker.  It took a while because it involved setting up a workshop.  So I thought I'd make something for one of my bee mentors who's helped me out.

Lone, that's just beautiful! I've been a pro woodworker for over 30 (hence hardwood) and I love this piece! Are you still trying to make it to Bud's this year? I've just gotta give you a big hug at some point and jump on the list waiting to become your mentor!!

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

 Thanks, folks. I've tried inlay before using carving tools and the wrong kind of saw, and that ended up very rough. I'm in shock that a pro woodworker likes it.  Do you have any woodworking projects aside from supers you could show us, Scott?  I won't get to Bud's this year unfortunately, although I would love to be able to stand on his pedestal.  Don't let anyone else on my pedestal, will ya Bud?
 I've just realised that every member of beemaster is my mentor..oh no..I can just see I'll be burning the fluorescent light at both ends.
