yeah trying to get a straight edge and there wasn't enough room to keep them seperate.
Ive made one big cover plate at this stage that does the whole thing, got a blank sheet 3ply white tortoiseshell from ali express cheap and just cut it myself
unsure whether to leave it as one or seperate into two ,still pondering what the join would be like in two pieces

been putting it off for months, so as the weather is a bit shit, today I decided to have a hangover. Luckily I slept through most of it and now I have a coffee in front of me so should be fine.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

and I've just had a look at my project pile in the basement while drinking a steiny pure. Does that count?

Decided this is the year to finish some of them!

Oh but it was handbrewed on an artisan hipsters thigh, it has hints of aubergine perfumed beard oil in it!

Best time to do it... all loose bits get washed out leaving you with an impeccable clean gutter. Not that anyone will see it :D
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.
