Thats some ace work right there, mate. Too pretty to take walkabout.


Love the brass chevrons. Something I've been wanting to try, but worried I'd make a right mess of it.

Wonder what they'd look like with the chevrons fore and aft?

Brilliant job!

Thank you all for the compliments. Cthulu, putting the bolsters fore and aft make them a bit too heavy for my liking, but thats just my tastes. On the positive side of things it would give plenty of room for engraving.
Jamie drop around anytime.

Whoa dude, that's sweet! Normally, I'm not a fan of brass, but I love it here!

Would you be willing to give us a how to? Not a step by step per say, just a quick do and don't type thing.
