Battleship Texas WIP

Thanks KOD. They're releasing a bunch of material that'll be made into knives and such to be auctioned off by the foundation. IDK if they plan to save some of them for display or not. I'm in on that project as well, although my contribution won't be as complex as this piece.

Glued it up last night. After the glue stiffened up I took off the clamps to clean up the extra glue. All right, so I went to bed. Overnight without the clamps, a gap opened up. Choice words were spoken.

Currently deliberating. I don’t have enough clean wood to redo both scales as is. Plan a I think it’s going to be some heat and try to get that one scale off so that I can re-glue it. Plan B, tear the whole thing apart and rebuild the scales with a spacer behind them. I don’t have the width of material to replace it as it is without some kind of spacer.
