I certainly could have wasted it more than they did. I'm an expert at wasting stuff.

That wood looks good but looks are deceiving. Could be very soft and course grained.  I have been deceived by looks too many times.

Very Soft and coarse grained avec deceiving looks?

Must be an American thing?

Well, if you ever wanted to own a Pedersoli Bess, this would be the one!
