Hi Ralph , top clas as usual , its amazing how much better it looks with the final buffing compared to when it was on the graph paper.
Whats the next challenge then ?
Cheers Mick.

Thanks Phil.
Thanks Mick.
I do like to work in gold. Wish I could do more, but . . .
Don't know what will be next. These last ones were so challenging I may need to do something easier to recover from the intensity. The gold #4 plane took a 2.0 oz shot and yielded a piece weighing in at 1.54oz. Most of the remainder was recovered, but it was a highly anxious poar with $2000 + of molten metal to shoot. I held my breath . . . , and all went well. It was a perfect poar. Doing the finish work was pure joy once the mold was broken open, and it became clear that the poar was a success. But after that, nothing has caught my eye. What could compare to that? I couldn't get any higher, and now I'm floundering - looking for a cause. Any ideas?

Absolutelfy amazing bit of craftsman ship. You have set the bar high this time. Thanks so much for sharing this with the MadModder comunity. :thumbup: :clap: :clap: :thumbup:
I don't know what to suggest for you as a next project. Take a bit of time to smell the roses, take a walk, take your sweet wife out to dinner (wearing her new ear rings of course) and I'm sure something will come to you when the time is right. :D :D
Cheers :beer:

Thanks again, Don. I appreciate your thoughts and the wisdom of your advise.
I really did shoot for the stars on this one and may have found the extrent of my reach,
but I grew immensely by the experience and am still not sure what the limits might be.
