I am considering doing a tutorial on how to cut and install an end wedge/graft and thought it would be nice to include some pics of some people's work to provide inspiration and ideas to fellow builders.
So, if you have some pics of your end wedges/grafts that you wouldn't mind being included in an upcoming Luthier Tips du Jour video please send them to me at robiii65@hotmail.com Include your name so I can give credit.
Lance, feel free to move this if I posted in the wrong forum.

Bob from the Australian forum has told me that they have a thread dedicated to end grafts. It has a collection of beautiful end grafts, many of them are from builders known here on the OLF. Does anyone object to me using their pictures in a Tips du Jour video? Full credit and recognition will be given.

Thanks again for all the pics. However, I would prefer them sent to my personal email and in the orginal size/resolution please.

Hey, Alan the Aussie - what a clean design and execution that is! May we know what the woods are and are there other pics, please?

Thanks for sharing - not my intention to snub the other offerings, they're all gorgeous, but I love that no extra decoration look most of all.
