I almost got lost in your Monte Carlo post...

I don't have them here but have others from different jobs I can show you. If I may critique,...I think you're close but you should fit the pad to the wood and allow for the exact thickness of the leather all around,.. I use fairly thick leather, about .040" I find it more durable and unless I have to make a pad over 1" thick I don't usually have any problems with it Also , curved pads can be done but unless the back of the pad itself is curved to match the wood and remain rigid it'll be difficult to get it just right CJ The taste of poor quality lingers long after the cheap price is forgotten.........
