Thanks...I get a lot of inspiration from the styles and materials used in knife, guitar and jewelry making. Always looking for new things to use for woodturning embellishments. Here's an example from the jewelry trade: this abstract USA flag design is framed with "punchinella"...the leftover waste from sequin manufacturing.
