Re: Tombstone Rose Pattern
Absolutly beautiful and flawless work Kurt. It was good to see you at the Engrave-In. I keep thinking how nice your 97 Winchester would be with my other SASS guns.

Re: Tombstone Rose Pattern
Hi Rodger,
I had a great time at the engrave-in. Can't wait for the next one. Many thanks to Scott and Rhonda. Sorry Rodger I think that '97 will have a new home soon, but I have a couple of other 97's and a '93 . Kurt

Re: Tombstone Rose Pattern
Inspiring, I love the contrast in the pronghorn grip cap.... Would love to, but am scared to know how much of an investment in gold you have there... : ) If you get a chance to take some or acquire some good pics of the finished rifle, please post em..... Your friend, Jim

Re: Tombstone Rose Pattern
Jim,
The rifle is not yet finished. To date she has sucked up over 14 OZ. of 24K wire.:whoo: I'm guessing that it will take 4 to 6 OZ more to finish it. Kurt

Re: Tombstone Rose Pattern
Very different style Kurt. It looks excellent. That is a LOT of gold wire!
I didn't get a chance to talk to you much at the Engrave-In but it was a pleasure meeting you. I haven't put the cool graver handle you gave out into service yet as I use air power but I do like it. Thanks, Peter |
