JASON HARRIS: Hi, I'm Jason with ExpertVillage.com and so far, with our drawer handle, we've done the drilling and the beveling and flattening the edges and we took off the first layer of worn out stuff off and I'm not quite happy with the way the first layer came off so I'm going to use the bit--the cutting bit again and I'm going to actually go back over the parts that I can see that are darker and brown-grey; and the parts that are lighter, I'm going to leave alone. And I don't care if the surface is going to have divots in it. I don't care that it's going to be not 100% smooth because it's a piece of bone. So, basically, all I'm being careful of is just not gouging down on an angle into the bone so I have an obvious mark. I just want it to look natural so I'm going to go ahead and do that step again and then we'll talk about the edging around the bone just to make it--add a little bit of character.
