Hi all,
Here I have a very lightly used squonker that was built entirely by hand in my shop. No fancy milling, just minimal power tools and lots of love.
Body is Claro Walnut with a beautiful grain, door is dyed and stabilized maple burl, both coated in poly clear.
Contacts are beryllium copper, 510 is varitube auto-adjusting, ultem button.
Handmade mahogany battery cradle, carbon fiber back & bottom plate.
Does fit an Italian supersoft, it's a little snug at the top but doesn't interfere with functionality. The perfect bottle that I've found was the square ones, but ymmv.
It's not a perfectionists device, it is handmade and you will undoubtedly find flaws if you look for them. I started the project with very few hopes for the piece of wood I used, but in the end it came together fairly nicely.
I'd be happy to answer any other questions you may have, otherwise I could just ramble on.
$150 shipped via Priority mail in the US
Thanks for looking,

I also have the little bitty brother to the walnut & stab squonker, a little 18350 squonker made from a different (basically the remaining bit) cut of the same Claro Walnut, with a mahogany door. Very contoured and comfortable in the hand, will only work with the little square bottles and flat-top 18350.
510 is varitube with manual adjustment (510 pin is slotted for a small flathead)
It's a beautiful piece, finished with 4 coats of danish oil & the grain is fantastic. Ultem button and beryllium copper contacts.
I would include this little fella for an extra $50 with the above enclosure, If interested separately it would be $75. I'll include 2x 18350 as well.

When you do get around to it, experiment with some different cuts and you'll find some amazing figuring in the grain!
