Whoa, I'm way behind here ....

Capt', being I'm new round here I'm not sure of protocol. I was wondering if you have or will be announcin' what types of mods will ye be offerin' in batch 14? And what is that beautiful darker wood in the back row second from left?

The closer they get to being done, the more I will show them off. So far there is half destroyers and half cutlass mods in the batch. And yes, that one is cocobolo, hard to work a bit but pretty as heck :)

Hey Cappy and crew!!! Can someone help me out? I love my wood and want to keep it looking clean and beautiful. What can I use to preserve its beauty? I think I saw something a while back on the thread but can't find it now. BTW This thread is awesome!!! So many really nice people and the Capt'n is great!! I may not say much but this is one thread I keep open. RSM pirate for life!!!

They all get a coat of carnuba wax before they leave the shop, it's a very hard wax but any wax product should work fine, expecially if it leaves a hard coat that has to be buffed off after it dries.

I thought it might be Vera (I think that's what it's called) wood which is the only green wood I've seen. Don't put Canary on the wish list just for me just yet - I gotta save my dollars for a bit!

I'm trying to limit the body wood to less than a half a dozen types, while on the other hand getting more and more of a selection of exotics for the panels. I'm getting wood I've never bought before because of the price. Kinda fun.

Hey, Cappy, I just realized that my new Destroyer II's are not numbered. Whassup?

On the back of the paperwork you get with the new generation mods is a serial number and the sale date. The number is also written discreetly under the electronics lid, cause I be sneaky! lol

OMG...thats TOO FUNNY Waho!! Do you drink that type of beer or did you buy some just to show Cappy and the crew? Is it any good? I've never heard of that beer before....but then, I'm not big into beers

I usually drink different varieties of Michigan made craft beers. A friend if mine wanted a red ale so I grabbed that and realized it was called red sky later after cracking it :D

As far as taste, it's one of the better reds I've drank. Going well with menthol in the RSM :p

Cappy usually posts pics of his finished batch here before posting them to his website, there by giving us first dibs ;)
That wood that you're speaking of sure looks like Cocobolo to me DD. I have a Cocobolo Destroyer and its a beautiful work of art!!

Here's what the wood looked like when I first received it:

And here's what it looks like since it's been exposed to air/light/etc...it's darkened up to where the yellows and oranges have darkened and it's now predominately a deep mahogany red and black color:

Glad to see that I'm not the only porn producer here.:p Howzit going CW.

I'll take some pics soon, I promise...

Well, 9 mods went out last week, but many of them just disappear into the void and I never see them again ... kinda sad ..

When I get one in for a repair it's kinda like them stopping in to say hello again.

I hope mine didn't disappear into the void....it's just taking an extended tour of the west coast on it's way to a loving new home (& an owner who will force it to do porn from day 1....lol!)

Holy ****! I just looked at your banner, you either smoked a lot or smoked very expensive cigs!

It's starting to annoy me a little when people sees me vaping my RSM and goes, "Is that one of those that keeps you off smoking?" Because then I have to really explain and make it clear that I vape because I like it better, not because I'd be smoking otherwise.

And by the way, Vision Vivi Nova tank fits well in Destroyer so it can be added to the list. It's actually pretty nice. Juice filling is easier than anything. Screw open the top cap, fill the tank and screw it back on.
