Well Done! So you just have some screws holding the plastic faces on there? And What is the threaded rod for (sorry I am... uhhh, inexperienced with stuff like that).

Good idea, not my style however there are some good design ideas I like about it. And the guy did a pretty decent job.

Thanks for the post.

I did like the more natural looking wooden handles better. Are those lazer eched? Or did you burn them?
