Man that sucks. It is sure hard to follow grain when it is twisting and turning like that. I followed the grain on the back on one only to have it blow because the back and belly didn't even come close to matching and the side splintered like that.
Everything happens for a reason, sometimes the reason is you made a bad decision.

Don't feel bad for me :)  I was laughing 2 seconds after it happened  :D   As I get older, little things like this seem pretty insignificant.
 Tim, I've already got two more started......their straight ;D
Be thankfull for all you have, because no matter how bad you think it is...it can always be worse.

Sorry about that,look at the good side,now you have another limb for the take down. ;) :)
Good attitude,it's just wood,like I said you never fall in love with a piece of wood or sometimes
you will get your heart broke a long with the wood. :) But man that sure would have been a pretty one.  :(

 I'll bring the crooked one you gave me to the Classic and see if I can break it. Get ya some sleeves and make a takedown.
