    some carving engraving will commence shortly on this build nothing is decided yet and will create as we go along may set the neck as well will look into the problems created by doing that if any, Im going for a Celtic type design for the carvings and engravings as a distant token to my name connection

    Welcome to the elite club Haydn. As Wokka asks, what are your plans for colours? It's great to see another one of these being built.

    It will be mainly plain after the carving has happened may just highlight some edges to give it definition but also a few engraved metal plates will be on my mind too, I did have a plan in mind to do a really deep carving then fill it with clear resin so its a clear top with depth 3d look if ya will, thats one of the cats out the bag!

    I made it ..it will actually stay on the axe as a visual part of the headstock, mostly to cover up the crap repositioned hole !
