Dover (dovetail)
« on: March 11, 2012, 07:31:33 pm »
Found a piece of Dover in the bottom of one of my buckets ;D ;D This is one of my favorite materials, always gives my points that real old look, not always easy to work an usually has plenty of challenging spots to keep ya on your toes. Thanks for lookin. Bob

Very nice. Really looks old!
