Ok,
Getting a little better at the posting a new thread deal. Hope the picture is a little better on this one.
Again, the piece shown is a mandolin tailpiece & is for a high-end instrument maker from Austin, Texas. The piece itself is bronze & cuts nicely, no soft & hard places like you sometimes get with a poor quality brass casting. I used the hammer & chisel method for this piece: I'm still working on getting used to air tools & am not quite confident of my skill level with them to totally replace the hammer (at this point anyway)!
Thanks for looking!
