Thanks Hay (and others)!
I can't claim that making these myself was cost-effective. The two spike sets were around $50 (
Parts Express) and a couple of maple blanks were somewhere between $20-$25.
I also put in probably 4 hours labor so far, and will put in more to finish them.
Plus, I kinda bought a jointer and spindle sander for this project which added abother $700...
I just enjoy woodworking and liked the idea of them being wood, custom fit to the angle of taper from front to back. etc... Unfortunately, it took me a month from jointing the blanks smooth.....
to get to where I was yesterday, and it'll probably take me two weeks to where I can remove them and finish them!
