OPINION

HOWARD, Presiding Judge:

¶ 1 After a jury trial, Bryan Foshay was convicted of first-degree murder. On appeal, he argues the trial court erred first by allowing a toolmark expert, Rocky Edwards, to testify; second, by allowing Edwards’s report to be admitted in its entirety; third, by allowing Edwards to testify regarding another expert’s analysis; and finally, by precluding evidence that the victim had previously sold drugs and had methamphetamine in his system when he was killed. Because the trial court did not err, we affirm.
