I keep threatening to try a hick-backed locust, haven't gotten it made yet, though. It seems like a good combo.

Thanks  Guys.
Hillbilly, it is a pretty good combo. I've also backed locust with hard maple and liked that as well.

Fine work, and very inspiring!

I really want to walk the primitive strait and narrow, but seeing a laminate like that gets me thinking about BBO's and such. Oh, I've got it, why not do lots of both!?! ;D
Just remember, you can't put the wood back on.
