Aw shucks, thought you were at it again!!!

Comment by Scott W on September 2, 2015 at 12:04pm
Thank you, guys. Mark, this is curly maple. My daughter did most of the shaping, then we stained it dark brown. You can see the results in one of my albums. Gary, this is the gas can banjo you have seen at the last club meeting me and the girls were able to attend. :)

Lookin' good Scott, keep us posted on your progress.

That looks awesome.  Is that maple or poplar?  Nice shaping.

Hope it helps, Joe. The draw knife is for vey rough shaping. A rasp gets a lot of rough shaping done.

I had to lookup what a drawknife was - my compliments on your work, young lady. Very well done!

I'm shaping my first heel - will use this for guidance and motivation ;-) Thanks for posting!

Thank you! My teenage daughter did most of it -- she even used a draw knife :)
