    I'm trying a new technique to take the photos. I can't decide if it's two steps forward, or one step back, LOL.

    okay, normal lighting for this one. Hope I'm not spamming too bad, camera/tripod are out so I thought I would post a bunch at once.

    Your pics look great geekpryde. I wonder if there's a way to light the 76 proof so that the noise on the slab doesn't show...

    My LCS has one in stock for $20. They're pretty cool, but I still wouldn't pay more than melt for one.

    I used to see spoons at every airport and tourist trap I would pass through. Spoon collecting used to be the thing to do I guess.

    Right next to the little snowflake landscape thingies.
