Title: another from the gratz pit
Post by: bowtarist on June 24, 2012, 04:53:43 pm

I had a Buddy from New Orleans stayin w/ me a couple of days and he wanted my wife to tattoo him.  We talked her into it, but I had to get the kids outta the house.  I gave them the hose, some dish soap and the sandbox, then I hit the debitage pit.  >:D  I found a nice obs chunk that I'd spalled weeks ago and went to work.  Took about an hour and a half.  I gave it to my Buddy after the tat.  Any Bukowski fans out there?  This is our interp. of "Mockingbird Wish Me Luck" over his liver.  Thanks for looking. dpg

I appreciate it Bubby.  It was a good flake and I studied it careful before going @ it.  ;)  Ran a few passes w/ the ishi, then went to the small copper nail flaker.
