I've been reading and following the exploits of all of the Roscoeheads here for 2 years and have been very good at avoiding major gas pains. But as Popeye would say, "I can stands all I can stands and I can't stands no more!"
Question for Gard, I can get the top wood I want for my build but I need to know the dimensions. I plan on having matching front and back.
I know all of the other specs, just need that little bit of additional info.
Thanks for your assistance in advance.

Gard will get you fixed up and the rest of us will then be infected by the GAS emitted by your in-construction Roscoe! 
It's a vicious circle! SEE ROSCOES---GAS---GET NEW ROSCOE---SEE ROSCOES---GAS---GET NEW ROSCOE---SEE ROSCOES---GAS---GET NEW ROSCOE---SEE ROSCOES---GAS---GET NEW ROSCOE---SEE ROSCOES---GAS---GET NEW ROSCOE---SEE ROSCOES---GAS---GET NEW ROSCOE---SEE ROSCOES---GAS---GET NEW ROSCOE.......

This was the only picture I've gotten so far. It's not as reddish-orange as I would like. I mirror-imaged (bookmatched) it for ya.
Awaiting more pictures and pricing from the vendor. Also awaiting to see if Keith has any luck in tracking down a fine specimen. 
Hopefully more to come shortly.
