A suggestion if I might.

When you make protos do like you did making the bodies the same but vary the weights position, it looks like from the pic they are all in the same spot. Varying the weight position may reveal a different action sometimes doing something out of the box results that could surprise. If spoke out of school sorry.

I really like what youve got going on with those bodies. Spooks and ballerinas intrigue me, Ive made a bunch with some success and failures and I always save each and write notes on them. The latest is a soft maple spook and it is quite pleasant surprise.

Good luck

Chris

funny you say that ,,, First spooks I made were from a 100 yr. old board of soft maple stored in a barn .... They were magic .... Big Dave still uses them and raves about them .. But I'll never have that recipe again .
