Thanks everybody! I just turned a bim G. Fauman crown top so that should be ready in a few days. Thanks for the offer Mr. mathews about the wooden sales bottle but I wouldnt want it to be an inconvenience for you and my mom is limiting the amount of bottles coming into the house recently so can't accept your offer at the moment. The idea with the torpedo that breaks open into a box it great and I will probably do it in a bit once I get an example of a torpedo to model it after. And the indian herb bitters...................well I could do it but it would take a while ;)
I will be doing some rare bitters bottles and my favourite bottles (blob top sodas and beers especially ones that are'nt crude) once I get some pictures or aquire one into my collection.

If you would like to see a certain bottle (they won't be for sale for a while but just to see what it would look like) please e-mail me a picture of the bottle beside a ruler on all sides top sides and bottom so that all lettering is visible and I can make the bottle accurately.

This is one of my better fish but it is still unfinished as it has not been mounted and the pectoral fins are missing. This took a while even though its so small.

Excellent Trout! You must have air brushed that,or else you handle a hand brush like a Japanese cork sculptor! You should be doing work for Cabelas,L.L.Bean or any of the big sporting outfitters.Amazing! Please show us more when you can!

The wood ones are nicer than the originals, and more interesting.

You should try one of those beehive or ribbed pepper sauce bottles.
