Title: Couple of primers scratched on,.......
Post by: aaronc on July 20, 2018, 05:04:52 AM

The Grinslade book was helpful for laying out my first ship. Still working on my eagles. These primers are tiny compared to bigger size horns. That presents its own challenges but was still fun. -Aaron

Very, very nice!  I like ‘em both, a lot!  Where did you get that double-ended scribe?
