Knockout piece of wood. I, too, am a little turned off by the darkened checkering. It just isn't in keeping with the original offering, but you did a terrific job on the checking. Reminds me of a a guy who used to do all the hand painted lettering on the transom of the boats at the yard I worked at when I was a kid. When he looked at you, his eyeballs were going in two different directions, yet he was the 'go-to' guy for the best lettering out there.
I've seem you shoot, Brian, so your eyeballs are still working ok.
