denimhead Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 Fantastic result considering the sum of its parts, just goes to show what can be acheived without huge costs. One thing that might be worth doing is sand down the insert a bit so it sits inside the bezel a bit flusher. Congrats on a lovely piece DH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
