Tony, thanks. I had fun making this one too, first time really working with Ipe, and it not bad that bad to work with but it sure smells when you cut it.
Dave, thanks. I made 2 of them (kept one) one was darker than the other, not sure which one was better.
Yrti, thanks. It's a Swap thing, try to make something that will pop.
Ryan, thanks. Needed one myself, so decided to give one a try. Need a Spokeshave too.
Petey, thanks. I was happy with them, except for the iron.
