<p>[QUOTE="Fern77, post: 4578029, member: 16131"]The new nails, and all the holes you see in the back panel, which looks original BYW, are "maintenance" of sorts. Where bits of wood are missing you can see one or two different kind of nail holes in the frame (it wouldn't be usual for the board to split at the nail hole after some expanding/contracting). They would have been much more sparse with the nails originally. At any rate, very nice![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
