Tony's carved cejillas are nice and way too under priced--the carving along has to take up time or there is a CNC machine that needs paid off. ngiorgio also makes make some nice cejillas with an interesting array of woods. I think it is great that he made an offer to give a discount to foro members.

Muchas thankias for the link. Here's a cejilla I ordered from maderasprimas doing what it's supposed to do very nicely on my blanca. But it works just as well on my negra too - and there's no artificial chemicals to mess with her nitro finish. Very attractive!
