First Baron

[GaryMGg]

I finally made the time to use one of the Baron kits I purchased from Chris' Group Buy and matched a Copper plated kit to an Amboyna Burl blank from Isaac. Finishing schedule was MM, Oil & CA, and buffed out with carnuba wax. Keeping the bark inclusion in the finished blank was touch and go for a bit, but light cuts, sharp chisels and following all the advice y'all post here helped.

All comments and criticisms welcome.
