Title: little bit longer
Post by: hbbows on June 14, 2014, 11:36:50 pm

Had a big  nodule I brought back from Texas a couple years ago and had just enough confidence to be dangerous.   Started on this point last Sunday and kept pecking away at it most every evening.  I would work on it till my hands got to shaking because it was getting thinner than I ever got a piece before.  Finally finished it up this morning    Anyway, it aint real pretty  but it's still in one piece.

That looks great.  I'm not there yet, but getting closer.  Impressive!

Well, there ya go! Just a little bit thinner and it might be flexible enough to use as a filet knife!
