[QUOTE=seanq;546762]Spent a couple of hours today on this one, a nice piece of walnut, bitch to use as it splits very easy as iv already found out .
Hi mate
walnut is very heavy also, do you think this would affect the balance?? only asking as i have access to lots of walnut and mahogany, also anytime i am using either of these woods, i always use plenty of cellulose sanding sealer, it cuts down on the feathering thats very common on hard wood.
you do a nice job mate.
cheers
gus.
So now you are on 'real wood'looking forward to this one coming together Mr Sean

I’ve just found what I was looking for, it was where I left it …
Hi gus this does'nt feel that heavy really so hopefully when its done it'll be even lighter, hi tadpole iv made quite a few out of real wood iv just not put them on here, at least i dont think i have.
