I has some curly maple left over from another project, so I decided to refit an old Topper that I had on hand.
I cut the barrel to 18" and fit the furniture with a 4" grinder, hand files, and a scraper.
The nose cap is poured silver.

I'm a bit challenged posting multiple pictures with a mobile device, so hopefully this isn't too annoying for the moderators.
(Yeah it did bother me, so I flipped it! TS)
