Speechless. That large fissure in the back of the kakatua has completely dissapeared. and the "beak" looks to be incorporated just as seamlessly.
Compliments to you and Maggie. |

Good work on the restoration.

Thank you folks.
As far as the scabbard is concerned, it is made of stained walnut. The kakatua pommel is 3 7/8 inches wide and 8 inches long from nose to tail. |
