I Had to make it my own... Ever get that feeling?
Got something so special it needed something to make it the only one, your own.
Well I am in the inlay business and we do some tricky work in pearl, so I decided on this...
The Fat Cat!
Todd's great steels really do not need more than the way they come.
Really I had a little nick in the black lacquer, so the inlay went on it.
Hope he don't mind.

An amazing little piece of art, Andy!
I always thought it would be nice if someone did something similar with the "American Beauty" cover, btw.

Thanks Joachim,

Thanks to Doug & Jesse...
Yes well on that "American Beauty" there are limits to what can be done in a 1.25" pearl inlay!  
Best wishes.
Andy
