help a brutha out...
I just made a few of these to add to my table at the gun show. I figure since this is the turkey hunter's hangout, youinz know they're for beard and fan display there's two different styles and three different woods (Cherry, Black Walnut, Red oak) which style beard board do you like best?   If there's a general consensus on one style, that's the only style I'll make. Thanks for your help ..L.T.A.

thos weekend in the Summit Co Fairgrounds (near Akron Ohio) The weekend after Easter Expo center in Niles Ohio in the Eastwood Mall plaza I sell 1911 grips, pistol stands, long gun stands, wall racks, etc My grips are my show stoppers though check some out        some wall display racks and pistol stands   I love to shoot and love my pistols, but don't hunt to speak of. so I really don't have a clue what works best for mounts. i just took a look at friend's fan mount and said, "shheeeeeiit, I can make one of those" any help or guidance with design and operation would be greatly appreciated, Akita feel free to PM me if you prefer Thanks ..L.T.A.

Genie: What kind of wood is used in the 4th picture? Would it work to use that type of wood for a cap/spout cap on each end of a bison horn powder flask? Thanks.

Awesome grips genieman!  You're making me want a new gun to put a set on! STOP IT.  The mount boards are cool too. I'm a big fan of woodworking. Wish I had a shop to tinker in. My pick would be the design on the right, in walnut.

Bull Lifter, I like that idea, but that would take artistic talent...that I ain't got....
Thanks for the suggestions, thoughts and pics...keep 'em coming
for the record, i prefer the looks of the one on the right too.
I'll for sure have them in both oak and walnut so folks will have a choice of light or dark .
Probably make a cherry or two as well .
Personally, I've always preferred Black Walnut ...it's just my favorite wood.
But I make all my wood goodies in oak, walnut and cherry .
It's just about an even spit between oak and walnut as far as which wood folks choose .
Cherry has always come in 3rd
Thanks again Fellows
..L.T.A.

Search out some wormy chestnut, that would make a great looking piece.
