Well actually fifth. Messed up on the other four attempts. This one isn't completely done yet. I need to sand some of the edges, and change the spacer.
First picture is before.

Thanks.
Love the walnut scales and their shape. I am in the process of making mine from some European oak that was salvaged from the trunk of a 3" dia. sapling that was grown from an acorn in my garden. Oak is an uncommon timber in this part of the world. The sapling was taken down about five years ago so the wood should be stable.
lookin good, mate!
