Title: Some new ones in my own shop
Post by: Bigriver on March 23, 2019, 10:21:49 AM: Sandvik and whale tooth, Nickel silver bolster and mosaic pins. My first bolster attempt along with the dovetail. Learning lessons.

Post by: Bigriver on March 24, 2019, 09:12:06 PM: Certainly made rookie mistakes. One pin has a halo, that bugs me. I think the bolster should have been thicker to start, it ended up little flat, wish it had more radius.
