They're more interesting than the typical coloring. The dye adds more depth and a richer look overall. When you experiment with dyes, you never know what to expect, and Lacewood from a different tree or a different part of the same tree can give a different end result. These turned out really nice. Good job!

Very nice, I like them much more then the normal color. Even though Lacewood has a nice pattern I usually find its color blah, also I like stocks with a red hue.

Looks good. Is the dye pretty durable?

Looks good. Is the dye pretty durable? As far as I know, it is. The dye is applied to the bare wood first. Then I actually mixed it into the Tru Oil to color it also. |

Nice contrast with a dark blue gun.

Looks good. Dying the wood first is one of the tricks the guitar guys use.
Neat!
