Thanks guys.  It's been a long strange trip, but the proverbial light at the end of the tunnel is in view.  Flax, the above, alas, is but a mock up.  The actual engraving should take place next week.  This is getting exciting again.
 
Bill, tgo

Bill,
 
Looks like you're going to beat me out the door, too.  Sigh.
 
Congratulations, though, and it looks great.

Bradley:
 
I believe my order did precede yours by about 3 weeks.  Which decade was that again? .... just kidding.  I expect yours won't be far behind.

That picture was from this morning. This one is from this afternoon:

 
There's still lots of work left to do - like the engraving. That's just an adhesive film to show where the letters will be. There's also film and markup fluid to remove, and sanding left to do, but you should be able to get a good idea of how it turned out.
