Hi Folks;
Having just broken a nice Koa side, I'm on the hunt for a replacement set of sides to match the back in the pic.
If anyone can help, I sure would appreciate it.
The wood came from Steve at Colonial, but it was a while ago & he doesn't have any more like it.
Thanks,   Dan

if the wood split on grain lines it is possible to cafully glue back togather. The key is tight fit at the brake. Thin CA is great for this. Robbie O'Brien had post about a week ago on a roswood set that one of his students repaired.
