So I put the veg ivory on the tips. And yes,  :embarassed:it looks like a finger lol. It'll looks better once it's shaped. Enjoy and criticize if need be.

It has cracks in it but very solid still. I was surprised how hard the stuff is. Pretty impressive for a nut.

There's multiple kinds. The one guy in my veg ivory post posted another kind with black dots in it. Looked sweet

So when I string It the one side is about 1" farther away from the belly than the other limb. It's at a slightly downward angle more than the other outta the pipe. So just lessen the one limb so it's bending more?

I dont see much. Pull it down 12-15".
