I like both of them for different things, Larry...the Ahab really makes a FINE line when I want it, which I love, but with the cap pegged it's a tiny bit heavy for me.

Will probably order another one.<br /><br />BTW, I LOVE it when you show us your sketch and what you were looking at when you did it. Great insights come to newbies like myself when comparing the two images.<br /><br />Cheers --- Larrylarryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499637631503513759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764822475195816427.post-65017710810106479792011-12-11T11:06:21.547-06:002011-12-11T11:06:21.547-06:00Beautiful sketch!
