Then ivory white layer of g10 3mm thick for the core of the frame then then a thin layer of green and yellow resin followed by a red cedar finger swell .. acrylic pins and a c.a. finish over the red cedar finger swell .. hope u guys like it!

@Joey Jfive Lujan..........Joey, I'm gonna go out on a limb here, in hopes you don't get mad at me for this, but I RESPECT your abilities too much as a builder, to not give you my full and honest opinion, which I truly think every builder wants anyway ?

I absolutely LOVE the LBS design, but the material choices, or maybe it's just the color combo on this one (?), just doesn't work for me........hard to explain, but I'm just not drawn in by this as all your others I've seen, a little disconnected from it, but maybe it's just the glaring white core of G10, and the resin and cedar just look plopped on or added as an afterthought, like the materials don't blend together so seamlessly like your other builds I've seen ?

I hope I'm not being too critical,as I'm just trying to give you honest feedback on what you post, as I would hope you'd do the same for me in return.

Love, love the LBS, just not this one ? RESPECT my friend. ( don't hate me )

Hey bud !! .. no problem!! All opinions are welcome ! . Thanks for your honesty ... we all have different tastes .. this one is really liked by some .. and maybe not others .. just like the others . If we all liked all the same stuff it would be a very strange world!! Lol .. I actually like the white g10 with the micarta .. looks somewhat classy to me ... the guy that's getting this one asked for it in these materials .. your opinion is appreciated man [emoji1360][emoji4] LBS baby!
