This is a very nice set of Cocobolo with some beautiful beeswing figure and nice dark inklines. It is large enough for an OM.

Retail value is $200, but a bid of $150 takes it and gets free domestic shipping.

This auction end tomorrow (Monday) at 3PM EST.

I am not close to them. However the centers are not cut straight, they are wider in the center and will need to be trimmed a bit before jointing. (I simulated this by overlapping them a bit in the picture). When I overlapped them they weren't quite big enough for a dread (but close).

Sorry about that... I should have measured them.
