Keep working on that tiller. I think I would first tackle the mid limb on the right. Careful on the left you dont want a hinge showing up. Basically what I do is work the fades last.

Thanks. Got it worked out. Thinned the handle area too. Removed a small bit on lower tip to come around more. More eyes are more better. :)
