Thanks for the kind words. After putting in the lines and veins you can turn it upside down and place on a board while hot and hit the back with a ball pein hammer. I do this on the treadle hammer. I have now made a curved chisel to do the lines down the sides and it looks much better. In the Gallery under events or meetings I posted pictures of Ernie Dorrill doing the demo on these leaves (with Glenns help). They are in the July 08 MS Forge Council meeting.
