Found some more pieces to play with, "The Queen" has a brass ferule that came off of the smaller diameter area of an old musical trumpet that was nickle plated I took the plating off, the small ferule at the mouth piece is a spent casing from a 9mm Luger shell and the mouth piece is a brass rod I drilled out to 3/32", the rod was in another old gun cleaning kit. Of course the snakewood is from some more blocks I have. Her gentle curves make her the King's cat meow! She stands 6 - 3/4" tall as compared to the King who is 7" tall. She don't have all the silver bling but hey, she is second in command!(http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e182/ace250semo/Project18_zps9a3acee4.png) (http://s39.photobucket.com/user/ace250semo/media/Project18_zps9a3acee4.png.html)

I had some old driftwood planks from off the Mississippi River near me, been drying for years. Thought it would make a sweet rustic box for this set. Hope my buyer likes them.
