Michael Collins has very generously donated the rosette he made in the recent mini tutorial. This is inlaid into a well figured redwood top. Davids work is very beautiful. Thanks again Michael!!!

I know we haven't had an auction in a while, but this will end on Friday @ noon (EST) in the normal fashion.

Yep, it looked like quite a bargin to me.

I am even thinking of applying my wood stretcher to it so I can make
it into an OM. Actually, the binding and purfling should make up for
the 1/8".
