The preener is amazing.

Thanks. It was just an idea I had floating around in my head. I'm going to try sticking some foam on the bottom of the wing and carve it so it makes the feathers turn down just a little. I've never tried anything this elaborate, but hey, no guts, no glory.

Geez Gene, you do not mess around. I hope you're making some money from this venture because you're turning out some really nice stuff.

Nice work Gene, I am looking Forward to seeing that preener come along

[DeadEye_Dan]

Pretty cool.

[Baysider]

Very nice Gene. I still cant get over how far you've come in the last year. I nominate you for the most improved interweb carver of the year.
