that is very nice and looks like it works just as well as it looks.. well done 
that was the last one I had.
You are right Mohamad, a great pleasure to hold and look at, but I fear using it for the possibility of damaging it. It came out too beatiful to be stored in a tool box, perhaps on a violin case with velvet lining... Originally Posted by Mohammad Madha

LOML wanted me to put it on display in our dinning room
