He has the raw dimensions in his book and a plan but nowhere can I find what the finished thickness is. Anyone know? Thanks Rich

It's tapered from 1/4" at the string end to 3/8" at the heel. There is an additional half cylinder piece about a half inch from the heel end on the underside that is the fulcrum that actually contacts the top.
