The cue is absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for sharing it! I love pink ivory and the engraving is awesome. I don't care if the scrimshaw was done by hand, computer or a flying flamingo.. just fabulous and a hellofa lota work went into it. Congratulations on a fabulous work of art (and I know that it has to hit awesome, as most all JW & Euro's do).

BTW I agree the cue is great, I hope my questions didn't lead anyone to think I thought less of the cue or didn't like it. I was just asking.

Ger, I still don't believe we are on the same page, I believe that the 2 (scrim, and Engraving) are completely different techniques. Scrim being holes and scratches filled in with ink and when rubbed the ink stays in the holes and lines depth of the work creates contrast and depth in the art. Engraving is a carved line that makes up a design or picture, but it's just a line cut in, I can't explain the way I want but the two are different and give a different look, not to be confused. I said that I believed a machine could do scrim not because I've seen it or heard of it, but with the way technology is today I don't doubt anything. I'm not trying to pick a nit, just clearify my earlier post.

Believe it! :) We are absolutely on the same page with this one...

I, for one, felt that your questions/comments were very informative.
In fact, good information about Scrim - thnks.

I agree, but unless you come here it prolly won't happen, I don't plan to make it to Germany any time soon, I'm sure that will be my loss, it's just not on my docket any time soon.

Jimbo,

I will be in New York late November and in MD for the last tourstop of the Planet Pool Tour.....
