Subject: [CR]? on David Kirk frames

Hi all, I'm just curious if any of you have any experience or knowledge of David Kirk frames? Curt Goodrich gave him a plug a while back which says alot, and I know David Novelesky has one of his frames. Do any of you have any first hand experience with him and his work? The link to his website is below. His frames look great!
