    Well, i believe this is much better. I have traced the spine and setting the edge on that tracing to my eye shows more even space at both ends. I removed a bit off the stabilizer end and a bit out of the belly. Please let me know what you all think. Thanks again for your attention to detail and knowledge fellas as always its appreciated.

    Thank you, it just makes me nervous. I dont want to devalue or ruin anything. But i guess no better way to learn.

    Looks much nicer. Still a pretty big swoop, but the bevel should come in much easier now, FME.
    Nice job!

    On the bright side of things now you can get a Gold Dollar, fix the stabilizer, and hone it up!

    Been makin some scales.

    Beefwood, brass and a black liner. First set i drew the design for by hand instead of using an old scale as a template.



    As far as ill go with the belt sander..



    Hand sanded.. Just before i started the Tru-oil.



    There is a Henckels on deck for these babies..
