one more

the top was just a bit too big for the braid, so it went el-natural.......which worked out well because the braid tends to mute subtle color changes......in fact one of the top two in the pic above was the same color, but you can't tell unless you look closely in good lighting.

tails are same stuff as above

i know the stripes on the bottom came out crappy.....i have improved since

I love your work Youngsalt

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Nice work.
The spoons have the hole in the back as you call it becasue they are designed to be "inline" spinner blades. Have you ever seen the long daisy chain spinners used to troll for salmon in fresh water?
