Terrific thanks Huon pine fan. That's about $100 off the normal pretty steep price, so I went online and grabbed one too—they offer free postage too so that was the actual price I paid. Great result...

Great way to use bits and pieces, Fumbler, and a mighty useful tool resulting. When you come to turning up the head for your big heavy mallet, can I offer a tip? My woodcarving teacher in London...

You are one mighty clever guy, Bill Carter! I love your work.
