That insert matches perfectly. In the other pic I thought there was a black stripe of laminate.

Not bad. I'm not big on laminates or colored wood but that matched up pretty good.

Pretty blue wood aside, you just won my admiration and respect. That is the real deal, making the inserts. How about a clip so we can hear it?
