I like the looks of locust - some lefty is going to be happy.

I like it and was actually thinking of using honey locust in the next one I build for myself someday.

The nice thing about light woods is that it will hide any flaws in clear glass too.

Looks nice.  I'm thinking about a honeylocust Hill style with a dark wenge or ziricote.

Nice!
