Great post, Mark.
As the owner of that Matty, I know how you feel.
You're missing the Waiting Stage, which can be exhausting, as Graig has a list longer now than 2+ years. While you wait, you have to endure second-guessing (did I pick the right photo to do?), and watch as he endlessly posts completed pieces that test your patience even further.
Though I have yet to make it through the Waiting Stage completely, as I have not received a commissioned work yet (almost 1 year wait on #1), I know that once that crazy wooden box arrives from Dean, it will be well worth it.
Enjoy that Gehrig - it's a beauty!
