That certainly is fine! Is that the same size as the one I have? I may need another...hmmmm, I may have a problem. Oh, that is for a gentleman, No problem.

Very nicely done! I'm wondering about how big it is how much it holds etc?

Mitch,

Beautiful work !!! Both the silver work and the engraving are superb.

Do you roll the upper lip ? Or is it a separate piece silver soldered in place ?

Wow

Thanks Dave

On these I make the lip(top and bottom and handle) from drawn wire from ingots cast in shop.I've done rolled edges but they take a lot more time which raises the cup cost .

Thanks Mitch. I can certainly understand why the rolled lip takes so much longer to do....and the wire lip looks great.

I got to handle this at Ft Loudon, looks even better in person! Shame I'm not a gentleman...

Looking forward too it!!!! It's only proper that I test the cup out( strictly in the name of quality assurance

) before it gets shipped to the new owner after the CLA.
