A friend of mine, quite the wine connoisseur (and fortunately for me, beer snob) is having surgery on his eye(s) over a span of time - the first date being tax day, of all days - he said it was 15 Apr or 1 Apr, and he wanted to avoid that :eek:! Anyway, a quick project of Cocobolo, 2 wheel buffed, on a Ruth Niles stopper; will apply Renaissance wax before shipping. Malcolm's a big fella, 6'8", so there's not always anything left in the bottle :p, but it'll look pretty on his bar when not in use.
