There we go, very nice. How heavy are ya? I bet you could trap the belly and loose 7 lb or so.

Really like the ramp overlays.b

That is beautiful Bob - great job...those colors and wood selections really go nicely together. Oh and I am good with the weight...

fujimo, its a derivative of a Kennym of course.   :bigsmyl:  Have to get a shot of splice later mate. thanks also cunruhshoot. I will still get at losing a few more pounds eventually. I can handle the extra weight but being a senior citizen like Roy  don't see the need anymore.I am aware the osage will darken with time but reckon it will be just as effective in a darkish brown.
