That looks superb Mike - very tasty!
 
 

Over the top!
 
Do you have an uncle named Don?
 
:-)

Thank you Bat!
Thanks Steve!
Thanks Mike and I sure get asked that a lot. :)
 
I tried to post a better shot - it doesn't show up like chrome but it does show how well made
it is. Not like a decal. Just nice clean lettering. Durable too. I wiped it with a paper towel just to see
if it would scratch and nothing but shine.
I took this before any oil coating was applied.
It was a gamble purchase and expensive but I couldn't be pleased more.
 

It looks like your usual high-quality work.  Nice job.  

Wow!

*Drool!*

Spacey this is amazing!
I enjoy woodworking and am just blown away by this.
What did you use to make the 'tummy' cut?
Nicely done man

Completely blown away!  Great job.  Love the grain patterns.

Jan, John, Craig, Dave, Rimshot...thank you guys for the kudos.
 
Dave I remove a bulk of the wood with a side grinder and then
the same rasp I use to carve necks followed with a blade scraper.
I also make the arm reliefs the same way.
I think many would use the bandsaw and drum sander.
