Wendell, that will be a dandy.  Did some of the the walnuts sort of 
float up in the resin before it set?   Would you be offended if I 
rescued some walnuts from our tree and tried that idea next fall, after 
they dry?

I have been turning like a mad rat until just recently when I decided to 
do some other things, like work on my lawn mower, bikes, etc.  I was 
signed up for six days of shows that have been cancelled, three days and 
one day in June and two days in August. If I don't slow down I'm gonna 
need a semi to haul my stuff to a show!

Good hearing from you, John
