I like them a lot.

I really like the first, I think the inclusion of the pebbles is a nice touch, it is this sort of creativity that sets a piece apart.

I'll beat Brian to say that I think us Brits are really showing our American cousins how it should be done now.

Yup, +1 re the comments above. I think I've said it before, but I find quite a lot of the US designs as published in the Scroll Sawing mags somewhat "heavy" looking, whereas, when you look at a lot of the stuff on here (NOT anything of mine BTW!) it looks so much more, I dunno, "elegant" and "understated". Nice work above, thanks for posting, and a lot of other nice work here by the usual suspects (you know who you are). :D

Have to agree with the other guys on here more lovely work and the pebbles are a nice touch.........they would make lovely fishing trophies....see if your local fishing clubs are interested in some........use these beauties as bait and you will soon get a bite (Sorry...just me trying to be witty but as Ruth keeps telling me I am not even a Halfwit lol)

Cheers and keep up the great work
Brian

Aaw Brian, don't talk yourself down.... You're definitely a halfwit :wink: :roll: :D - ducks and runs for cover.

Seriously though, good advice about the fishing clubs, I'm sure they'd love these.

Regards

Love them both but top one is best.

Here's a couple that didn't get away :wink: 5lb tiger trout and 9lb rainbow

From what I've seen you shouldn't have too many problems finding buyers. =D>

Referring back to Brian's comment. I reckon either of these would make far better trophies than some generic old tin cup.
