No offense Stephen, but I would love to see better photos of your kettles. Of course, that's like the pot calling the kettle black as I'm no expert, but your collection (among others here in the club) is worthy of some professional treatment. Lawrence, Jeff and I have talked about staging something like that, but it has not happened yet. I don't have a solution, but somewhere down the line it would be so nice to record our kettles for posterity in a manner befitting their significance. Maybe you know a photographer/hobbyist that could help out? Maybe we need to stage a typical shoot that we can all try to emulate. I have a link to a guy who did his own setup for photographing bicycles, and it's kind of what I'm thinking. I may have posted the link before somewhere, but I'll dig it up and post it again.
Nice 18 Woodie by the way!
