Notice I called it my "FIRST"? I love it! I'll definitely be back for more. It's almost too pretty to use. Almost, lol.

I think all of Bill's hooks are almost too pretty to use. Can you make the picture any bigger so we can see it and drool? :wowdrool

**** I tried to make the pic smaller I swear. I don't know how though. I kept downsizing it in photobucket but it never got smaller here. What should I be doing to get it right?


Oh My Gosh! On my screen it was huge and even when I was downsizing it in photobucket it wasn't changing. I didn't realize that it was getting smaller and I just couldn't see it. I thought Julie was being smart with me 'cause the pic was so big :blush

Smaller? No, no we need the pic bigger! We can hardly see it! *squinting* :p

It's perfect now!! I think on Photobucket they have the preset window size, no matter how big or small the image is it fits into that window. Those tricksters!! :clap It IS a beautiful hook!! :)h

Rebecca, if it is still little, do a hard refresh - hold shift and click refresh at the same time. It should be better after that. :)h

Hey neat trick Julie...I never knew that

That's a lovely hook, Stacy - what type of wood did you pick?

I picked the Brazilian Tulipwood. I have to confess though that I think I want one in every type of wood. Each time I go back I find one I like even more than the last time I looked and I'm pretty sure that Bill hasn't updated yet, lol. I just keep noticing a new detail in each one.

I'm so so :bad ... every time I read these posts i get these urges... and I flip over to TOTC... and alas, I have a P hook in the mail after just receiving my J and K last week, and a 13mm on reserve!! I just can't help it, they're so pretty and i am *so impatient* :loco

:)) Which wood did you pick? I think my next will be a Bocote. I love the stripes through the wood.

MY big hooks I am ordering in cherry, and all my smaller hooks have been in cocobolo. Once i get the full set of each I will start branching out to some other woods...
