: I thought I would share some pictures of my Petrel, I have
: benefited so much from the pictures others have shared. Not bad
: for a month and a half of work. Woods are western red cedar,
: Peruvian walnut, and alaskan yellow cedar.
: More pictures to come.

Beautiful! Love the simplicity: classic. I wrote to Joe Greenley awhile back regarding Peruvian walnut, which he likes a lot and used in that famous King of his. Any comments so far on weight/workability, etc.? Cost? Available lengths?

I'm thinking about it for the next build--and wondering where to get it in the SF Bay area. Thanks for posting these photos! Looking forward to seeing that beastie come to life.
