Yes, the flawless shaping is something you end up marveling at, because the advanced stock maker is going to wonder how the hell he did such perfect work in the panels and edges.

Not flashy, is also a fact. But it's understatements are *loudly* quiet — ay there is such a thing. We'd often stare at Kurt's work for hours at a time.
