Milestone

I have just this minute reached this point, and so have paused to photograph it.
From now on it is going to become significantly more difficult because it will no longer fit flat on my table.
Yes I'm leaving the knots long for the time being, for security, but when I have reached the end of the work and it will no longer be handled quite so roughly, I will cut them short so that they do not show on the front (hopefully).
And then I'll mount it on something appropriate.
