A couple days ago, I got a package in the mail from Arvil "Shep" Shepard. He sent back the '32 Ford grill shell clock, I'd left with him on my last visit over there.
To say if blew my socks off would be a serious understatement !! This thing is unreal!!
I've seen a hell of a lot of really neat things over the years, and it takes a bit to really impress me anymore, but this is one process I've "GOTTA LEARN" to do......!!
Be forewarned Shep...........I'm headed your way, and whatever it's going to cost me, just add it up, cause it ain't gonna be squat compared to what I can make doing this trick stuff.
Everybody that has seen this clock so far can't believe it either....they all are convinced it some big-buck exotic hard wood, till I turn it over and show em the back.
I guarantee you, that the pics of it on the portfolio page here, don't come close to the real thing, no where close...IT'S UNREAL......!!
You been warned Shep........I'm comin'......

Yer right CJ, that's some nice stuff. Let me know when you're headed over there & save me a place in line. (I'm not even gonna make any comments about how easily some residents of BF, KY are impressed)

Hey Shep, Put me down for the lesson! I've done woodgraining, but not anywhere near the quality of your stuff. The folks on my dads side are from the Mt. Airy area. Love to see it. Cheers
