    Turntable use ... i dont get it :(

    Elk scene

    Sam, you are right. The cell phone cameras are pretty darn good and very convenient. I quickly took these pictures just with natural reflective light and hand held. Now using your light tent would give a much more even light and exposure. Might try it out just for jollies when you take your...

    Using acid to remove steel burs

    Dave Years ago John and Nick Kusmit from winchester told me that when this happens to them, they would take a tiny drill and drill the burr out and then push in a bit of gold wire into the hole. They used gold wire for all their inlays. They were two very nice gentlemen Marty
