Scott Newell (NHMLA➡️LMNA) turned me on to these beauties. Milled down to perfection for the repairing of saxophones I believe.

So many tight bends, so little time. J'adore! Thanks Scott!

Hey all you beautiful geniuses out there. I have a potential scheduling conflict for a mountmaking and installation project. First pass it looks to be around 150-200 objects.

Looking for an available traveling mountmaker to work under the Spark and Anvil umbrella. Here's the rub though, I need a proposal like yesterday. Which will be tons of fun as there are a few unknowns and vagaries.

There's a NDA to be signed before details can be given, but we can discuss some details to see of it's a good fit for you.

So, who's hungry for prestige and glory!? Huzzah!

Yours,

James
