Hi all
I just came in form the shop with mother in-laws Xmas present. She is A light house nut so I thought I'd give it a try. The body is Quilted Myrtle, the top is black wood and I can't for the life of me remember the name of the root that I used for the base.
It's 12 inch tall, the bas of the light house is 2 1/8 and top is 1 1/4. It really came out nice.

I like the light house very much and I think that the wood you have on the base of it is Manzanites (I hope is spelling correct)
