Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

Beautiful stuff. 

The halfstock, What school or style is that?  A Mortimer?   I want to make something along those lines.

I was fortunate to take a silverwire inlay class with Hugh in 2013, and was able to see the piece up close.  It truly is a magnificent work.

Being new, and sarcastic, I fully expected and was hoping for someone to take my last post seriously. Obviously you are no fun so I think I'll take my ball and go home.
But seriously folks, I love this site. You are a fountain of information, lore and contemporary knowledge. I thank you all. Especially White Bear. The check is in the mail.
