Cut in some horrible scrap 3mm ply for practice but came out better than I expected.

Thanks for the comments. Hutzul, she's a young Russian lady I know but have never met. She was an ICQ contact and became a penfriend. I think I'm a stand-in for the grandad(s) she never knew. The piece is roughly 180mm x 210mm (7" x 8.25"). I uploaded the photo for comparison. I must give credit to Mahendra on Steve Good's forum for making the pattern.

Martin.

edit: Stew, there was nothing wrong with your first post.

I thought it was very good before you posted the original photo, now I'm blown away, so much so that I'm going to check out Steve Goods forum.
