excellent gold and chip work, Jerry.
and we know the pictures do the real thing little justice.
next time I'm up in the northwest, where my brothers eat raw meat,
I'd liked to see that in person.
very nice.

where can I purchase a SmithTable?
Is there a deal, getting a SmithTable with a SmithTip?
Is the table height perfect for a five year old?
