Well done! The purpleheart looks very sharp.
How was working with the purpleheart? Is it an easy wood to work with?Chevhead likes this.

I don't see any difference in it. Seems easy enough to work with. Plus it is a cool color... Lol Originally Posted by Bordee

A small tip for you, try wedges instead of spacers .
Spacers cause the scales to bow in after time, wedges do not.Stefan

nice work. wait til the purpleheart oxidizes, it turns a gorgeous purple brown with some black graining.
