Thank you for sharing these excellent photos. Your fabricating craftsmanship is beautifully captured here. I love the fitted case, it says a great deal about your sense of order and respect for your tools. Beautiful work Ron and I love the concept of craftsmanship being applied to record craftsmanship!

Ron, your photos are always great and now showing us your skill in making other items with your hands and mind is just beyond my imagination.
