Looks good Harley, you've got talent.

But don't forget the contouring, this is difficult to see in photos and you really need an example in the hand to follow.

Thank you,

But don't give me to much credit, this was the easy part.
As Mr Maisey mentioned, the contours are more difficult to do, but we'll see.
If i don't place pictures anymore, then you can count it's in the bin, and i have to start all over again

Ben

Hello Sajen,

I really don't no, my father in law gave it to me 20 years ago to make a very stable workbench

, but now i have a better use for it.
The only thing i can tell you that it is hardwood, en i can remember that there was a stamp on from Indonesia.
Thats all i know about it, sorry.

regards,
Ben

I hope i am still on the right track, if not i hope you will let me know.
Tomorrow i start with the gandar, and if it fits, then i can do the final finish of the sheath, but thats gone take some time.

regards,
Ben

Looks OK to me Ben.

The central rib that runs up the front of the atasan should ideally align with the center of the pesi. They often don't, and its no big deal if they don't, but experienced tukang wrongkos will always try to achieve this.
