Skiing was ok. We made 4 or 5 runs. (stayed on the greens as my wife doesn't have toe confidence to ski anything steeper) Then we went inside to get a cup of hot chocolate. On the way back out to ski some more Mary says to me "my boot broke". I turned around expecting to see a popped buckle, but nope. The whole toe of her boot broke off. She said it just popped off.
Mary was disappointed that we couldn't ski anymore. I was thankful that the boot didn't fall apart when she was skiing. If that had happened while we were coming down the hill she probably would have gotten hurt. |

Glad to hear Mary didn't get hurt on that one - pretty freaky -
I think it was God's way of telling you to get right home and finish another display case...  |

Thanks again to all who helped me out. |

Nice
Another nice display case that I have done in the past is a glass top coffee table, little higher than normal and about thirty inches square. 1/4" glass and have the edges polished, they come out pretty nice.

Giant Pikie
Before I started building I got one of your Giant Pikies. The finish and the painting were unlike anything I had seen to that point. That plug inspired me to make a quality plug. I love that plug, but if you have room in your case I would gladly send it along. You were such a tremendous help when I started making plugs. That afternoon in your shop when you took me through the whole plug making process, from blank to finish sanded. There were things I learned there that I have never seen since. The plug I am talking about is 8 1/2 inches long, metallic green back, metallic silver around the eyes and belly, red blush, brass belly grommets. It's a beauty. Gary  |
