Thanks for the compliments, guys. I admire all of you braddahs' prolificity! Yo, Ben! I have little else that I don't picture here but newly ordered productions of previous designs I have already photographed, which I figure would be a bore/yawner. Anymore I don't like to show more than one of the same or similar designs too often if I can help it, and only when completed (just trying to keep my thread size reasonable so the "meat and potatoes"- I.E. completed stuff stays more visible to the whole of TC and visitors). Between here, Myspace, and the BK site it's my main exposure, and you know people's attention span, so casual visitors need to see a lot of what I do at a glance on one or two pages. A lot of it has to do with time as well, of which I don't ever seem to have enough, so I post what and when I can. Lots of good work coming out of the rainforest here!
