I don't know who it is. But that's a beautiful bridge. I love macassar ebony. At least I think that's macassar Bobc38904.6843287037

Is that a Brock Poling bridge?

Bob said it...it's really nice.

Maybe it's a Payne bridge?

OK I will let you guys off the hook

This is a 3D rendering of a bridge that I have John Watkins quoting for me.. I know I said my bridge is a martin style, but what I actually said in the earlier post was that "my current bridge is a copy of a Martin". This is my future bridge


And Bob the material I use as skin in the rendering is Mad Ebony.MichaelP38904.7468402778

Our new rendering software update is pretty good hua?! What really makes the difference is the bump map texturing allows me to make the pores actually appear to have depth
