Hi Queequeg,
good job  , I love the 'organic' head. Did you notice any 'weight gain' after the club was soaked in Linseed oil ? Regards David |

VERY NICE WORK I NOTICED THERE IS A NATURAL OPENING IN THE CLUB HEAD, NOW ALL YOU NEED IS TO FASTEN A NICE SCALP LOCK THERE.
 I AM ALWAYS GLAD TO SEE A NICE PIECE OF WOOD PUT TO GOOD USE. |

So, I put it in my propane forge and started to heat up the head until it browned. I then immediately put it into the linseed tank ("quenched" it, I guess, for lack of a better term), figuring that, in addition to hardening, the wood grain would have expanded and soaked up more linseed oil. Some test whacks proved my theory. |
