Scrappile Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Jim I really like this. Nice job. I'm no wood expert but to me the other wood the lighter brown look like it could be Sycamore. Fact to me all but the fins look like they could be Sycamore...

If you look close the rear treble hook is cut off and just the stem part of it is there. I was hoping to make it look like the treble hook was inside.
