Doc challenged me, so I had to come through. I cut this up in June, but finally finished gluing it up this weekend. His weave looks much better. This is not inlayed in teh grip yet, which is why it's sloppy.

Myles, no need for a book, it's as simple as getting an image, tracing it in various colored foam, and gluing them all together. The hardest part is waiting for the glue to dry so you can press the pieces together. Seriously.
