Hey, Alan, David, Jon (& everybody else), Thank you all for your comments. I really didn't expect this kind of response; I just thought I had a halfway good idea. You're right, David. Ralph only has the pre-cut balance rail inserts available right now. I talked to him about this a year or so ago when I first decided to try it out. I have also mentioned it to Bob Marinelli. Of course, what they actually end up doing will be strictly based on demand. Rick Wheeler at Roseland will custom make a strip for you. DON'T use maple, though. I dulled my cutter a bit on the maple and now I have that to deal with. I think my first choice would be poplar. Thanks, Ken Z.
