Brian, you are correct, it was "black cherry" that I want.
I LOVE walnut!! but, it's a little dark & I think a lighter wood will build character.
I bought some really pretty inlays about a month back (a yard a piece, delivered in a huge tube, can't imagine what my mail man thought). Your Mark III will be perfect for my husband to put one of these inlays in! I'm super excited to get it!!!!
Well, since you posted on this thread after me, i'm guessing I've got a paypal invoice, so i'm gonna go pay it now 
PAYMENT SENT
My husband started a wooden box
mod for me, atty installed, etc...........right now he's working on the "magnet" part. This is taking a while, because I'd rather he continue to work on my 1/4 mile mustang every waking moment that he is not at work.
How does the Mark III compare in size to the Reo Mini?
Thanks so much!!!
