Title: Pinetree
Post by: Outbackbob48 on February 21, 2012, 08:24:38 pm

I got this pinetree (not a shannon pinetree) 8) today. Not as thin as I like but probably 4to 1. I punched the notches with a 8d steel nail, the pucker factor was pretty high on some thin ears, comments an critique welcome , thanks for lookin Bob

I'm with everyone else bob - all looks good. You've got the convexity there might as well go ahead and pop some of them Shannon teeth in on the side of it :D.
