More Ironwood on my favorite kit! There was going to be a wooden band too, but I kept breaking it until I ran out of extra blank! Wood bands are a little more touchy than acrylic. The finish is lacquer and I'm really happy with it.
Ed stresses this often, but chrome is one of the more durable platings out there. I consider it a premium plating despite the fact that it's common and inexpensive. A gunmetal version (or black T/N) would be really cool!
Really great looking! I do like the classy look of the a Triton finial embellishment, but yours is excellent. Just keep the original somewhere for something special.
