Unfortunately, the pics of the stem work don't really show very well. I left them out. I'm used to using a full manual DSLR, and the newfangled cell phone camera doesn't do what I want sometimes. Anyway, I'll get three of them better polished and properly photographed soon. That's what I have for the moment. It's been fun. Looks like great work, Emily! Please keep us updated |

I finally decided to skip the shank brushes and go straight to the drill bit. 😜🤠 |

Thanks, guys. Yes, I had good stuff to work with, which was good for a couple reasons.

Thanks, Jason. My fears were unfounded. It's good playing with a few that didn't entail any major. I'd feel confident I could handle the basics and tackle a problem in the future. I enjoyed doing it and it was probably therapeutic for the noggin, too. Edit: Working with carnauba wax is a PITA. I will see what my options are. I'm no pipe restorer, but I've used olive oil with some success. |
