Your State of Texas Welcome Sign with the intricate inlay work is very, very nice. I especially like the shark scene because two of my sons are certified divers. I will have to show them this piece in hopes they will stay alert when diving. Thanks for sharing, Seadog, you did a great job on both projects.

Very nicely done.  Beautiful in lay work. I want to give that a try sometime.

I see you use Photobucket.  If you use the "Img" link to copy and paste, it should show the image directly in your post, without taking space here on the forum.

I use photo bucket.
I click on IMG (which then shows "copy") and then ctl +c and return to my post and click on ctl +v and there is the picture! Well, it doesn't show up right away but, it will after you post or preview.





Try it, you'll like it!  ;D

I'm curious, what does the "ctl +c" do?  Is that short cut keys for copy.  When you click on the "IMG" in photo bucket it automatically copies the link for you.  Just want to know, I like to learn.

That is a cool belt.  Did you make that?

How the heck should I know what clicking on "ctrl c and ctrl v" does?  ??? I ain't no 'puter whiz!  ::) That is just what my son-in-law told me to do and it works!  ;D ;D ;)

Yes, I did make the wooden belt quite some time ago. It is oak and I did wear it briefly (about two minutes) but it doesn't hold your pants up worth a darn!  >:( :( 
The links were made on the table saw and of course the buckle and end were made on the scroll saw. It is entirely made of wood, I used 1/16" dowel for the hinges between each segment. My brother has challenged me to make a set of suspenders to match (you've heard the old saying about using both belt and suspenders for safety's sake) but, I've never quite got around to it.  ;)
I've also made wooden wrist watches (several of them) but, sold all of them.  ;D



There, I went and used "ctrl c and ctrl v" again!  ;D ;D ;D
