Rims In Progress - General 
Note: Rim described is partially complete, to be finished to buyers specifications. finished rim will include wood tone ring with inside face of tone ring beveled  full height of tone ring, terminating at a approximate 1/4" round over where rim meets head. Buyer has the option to specify rim diameter as long as it does not exceed the unfinished rim diameter, rim thickness as long as it's less than unfinished rim thickness and height/depth of rim. Rims are not predrilled (unless noted otherwise) and must be done so buy buyer.   Finished rim will be sanded to 220 grit.

RIM:  Steam bent Catalpa
Rim Dia.= 11-1/16"
Rim Wall Thickness=11/16" 
Rim Depth=1-7/8"
TONE RING:  Per Buyers Request
RIM BOTTOM TRIM:  Per Buyers Request
 
NOTE:    The rim is a domestic hardwood that is evenly dark brown and very lightweight, I believe it to be catalpa but I am not positive.  If coupled with a dense tone ring like Osage orange or hickory it might have a nice tone.
