A Jolly Roger Board is born....

Larry;
You are on your way to another winner. Two years ago I took my mother shopping for a bedroom set and we came across one that took my breath away. It was made of eucalyptus wood (Blue Gum) and had the silkiest looking grain I had ever seen. When I look at your CB thats exactly what I see. In fact, since my mother passed away in May, I have the bedroon set in my garage and I haven’t decided what to do whit it. I may just sell it so someone else can enjoy this wonderful wood.

I vote to put them on the rounded end – that end usually gets less use as well as just looking better. :-)

DAMN I like that Torque Center – that is one slick piece of kit!!!! Have you figured out how to have it make your bed yet???

Cheers!

Just a thought; maybe put round magnets under the bottle caps for holding a knife.

Hey Larry….that board is going to look awesome when finished!

Go for the caps on the rounded edge, in my opinion….

Rounded end, Larry.
Or… other end if you are putting in a handle on the rounded end.

Straight edge, Larry. Beautiful board.

Beautiful piece of wood, it looks like it’s on fire.
I vote for the rounded end, but honestly I think the skulls take away from the impact of the wood. I would leave it without anything but the hole.

Larry,you do acquire some of the best wood around. Looks like another great project in the works. I can’t say which side I prefer. I will have to wait to see the finished project, but then i guess it will be to late.

Both work for me.
I too like the idea of magnets under the caps for knife holding.
That is a very pretty piece of lumber.

I used to have an art teacher who always said: A good artist needs to know when to stop. You’ll make the right decision on this one….........
