I love the new shape! Is that gonna be a new thing? Those goes better together than ice-cream and steak! :eek: ~Andre

Nah, the shape of the striker came about because I took it from a 3/4" thick board, and turned and turned and turned and just couldn't get rid of one flat spot, so I was forced to cut a bit of a scalloped shape in it in order to get it round.  It worked out but it isn't something I'm going to stick with.  But I do like lightweight strikers and this one is definitely lightweight, so it is motivation to take a little more material off my average striker.

Thanks for the kind words everybody.

I cleaned off a spot on my wall of shame for this call.  When should I expect it to arrive so I can watch the mail?    :pot: :pot:
