It appears to me that the lower-most and middle parts of the block has the most action or at least I find the most interesting. I am seeing the body upside down with the horn on the bottom right. Please advise if you see it differently. Wish I could see this with some ace-tone on it. Perhaps that is not so important. No matter what, I really dig this piece of wood.

.....A rather visually deadly combo! All great stuff to see and further dream about. Thank you for your time and effort to satisfy my curiosity. As you can well imagine, I can hardly wait!!

Thank you...thank you, one and all. I'm really looking forward to the cutting, design and placement of the fine Redwood that will be used on this creation.

After we spoke yesterday, Bob said it was fine to slice open the Camatillo.
 

 
I think the other stick can get sliced in a couple of days.
