Ok.Im not too savy with the ol' computer.

I made my own for my second 388 I just got.The originals were in rough shape,but one was good enough to trace. I went to home depot and got a length of oak which is slightly narrower than the originals.I got the 2 bigger side panels out of this.I also bought some narrower oak for the smaller top pie...
