Hey, GnomeDome! Been following this thread with interest, and I think Dana has a good point. (Not as good, perhaps, as the one on top of your little gnomiehead, but pretty good, anyway!) ;o)
I, myself, would never have a use for a REAL Killdeer that fires actual rounds and all, but a piece of art, well...that's another matter. When things happen to make your original bit of work unusable, why not turn it into something fun & sell for a lesser price to those of us who'd not care that it wouldn't actually kill an elk? As long as you don't misrepresent the fact that it was made from a damaged stock, I'd think it a wonderful bit of recycling, and wouldn't mind having something like that for kicks. Will you consider this?
