Tomahawk: The layout and design Phase of Engraving

This is a great opportunity to see how engraving proceeds from the imagination to a drawing to a layout on the steel to the actual realization in steel and gold.

Here is where the magic begins!






A Finished Po' Boy and a Tomahawk In Process

Made the trip to Tenderfoot Hill yesterday between rainstorms to find Jud cleaning out his barn and Emma busy with harvesting a bounty of carrots and potatoes from her very productive plot at their farm. Beautiful, tasty carrots!
Jud has just finished a beautiful and very "upscale" Po'Boy rifle which I encountered on his workbench (first photograph). Detailed views of this superb rifle in a large calibre - it looks like .60 cal rifled bore, are shown.
