The Workshop: Real whoppers (3)

Assembling shadow boxes can be fiddly work, especially when there are fish hooks nibbling at your fingers. Go slow, I say.

["Two boxes are ready for a coat of oil"]

["A mother and child seem to be talking"]

["Be careful out there, Son."

"I will, Ma. Pa's been showing me the ropes."] 

[Pa: "Buddy, if you don't blink in 10 seconds, I'm outta here."]

After oil has been applied I will start work on a third box featuring lovely lures from Finland. 

["Three lures in all, each with two triple hooks."]

In the shop I'll be fiddling with care.
