That is some pretty grain.  Love it    :thumbsup:

I like the looks of locust - some lefty is going to be happy.
Enjoy the hunt!  - Mitch

I like it and was actually thinking of using honey locust in the next one I build for myself someday.

The nice thing about light woods is that it will hide any flaws in clear glass too.

Looks nice.  I'm thinking about a honeylocust Hill style with a dark wenge or ziricote.

Nice!
