Very nice. These loops can be addicting Icon_wink There as much fun to design as well as make. Plus they cost very little. This is a great example of someone who has very few choices and is now able to now enjoy their sets far more than before. Throw some stain on that and you're all set for the Grand 'Ole Opry Icon_thumbup

p.s. Experiment further with other designs. Try going to a 25"x25". Even a 30" if you feel you have the room.
