Modified 6OT

Post by Jeffinn »

I put some stabilized amboyna burl wood handles on this one. I rounded off the edges of the bolsters, threaded the bolsters and assembled it with some fancy mosaic pins. There's some minor file work on the lock bar to further dress it up a bit. A nice one for the shelf!

Very nice! I love what you did to the bolsters.
