Hi NIck...Yeah, the makassar is great looking stuff. There is so much variation between boards that you wouldn't even think it is a true ebony! But when you feel the weight!!.....like rock!

Yup...In the next few days I'll be double checking the files, finishing the surfaces on the broadcaster neck, and checking toolpaths for anyone that wants the Mastercam files . I'll post them in dxf, dwg, pdf, and parasolids.


Thanks again all!
Cheers
ED
