Here’s the finished komas - to be mailed to my daughter (Celia Olson) tomorrow. The finished heights are between 8 and 9mm. I notched one saddle at 9mm spacing, “per the book”. Celia can decide for herself about the other two.
If Celia is so inclined, she can post a video comparing the new bamboo komas with her current padauk ones. Honestly, I doubt anyone could tell the difference from a home recording.
