Looks more like one of those big hairy dogs were the face is mostly hidden by hair. I can see the snout and a long pair of ears. Hmmmm do I remember the 60's or not?

Lovely piece of cherry Bob, you better hide that from me!!John How38699.8440277778

It looks like a grasshopper to me, but then I'm buggy anyway

Or maybe the logo for an Eagles album

I see a longhorn steer from Texas !!!

Howard, as per my usual routine these days, the back and sides were smothered in CA as a pore filler, which helps a lot - I say that because I have had to repair a couple back hairlines post finishing a couple years down the road. Just as the first one happened, I read in an old GAL that Linda Manzer didnt like using Braz because it was unstable - she said that way back in the mid 90s.

The BRW log chunks my friend and I just cut up into sets arent quite this wild, but will definitely be getting the CA.

Bob is this some form of psychological analysis? Are you making a file on our responses. You know, according to the freedom of information act, you are obligated to let us see what is in those files. In fact, I think it would be fun to publish your findings on the OLF. Call it Bob's Rorschach Test Results on OLF members, or something like that.John Kinnaird38700.3443171296
