But you knew that... ;-) Thanks John. The Mahogany I'll be carving is due to fall off a UPS truck into my garage tomorrow. So I should have a good idea how well this will work a week from now. The first thing I have to do is rig to edge glue two of these boards to get the width I can't buy. Actually thats second, the first is to clear off a work table, its piled about a foot high with tools & what not thrown at it over the last year. I was never accused of being a good workplace housekeeper. :) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
