The Buckskin is just split and being swaid you dont see imperfections as easy. You can add the rope to dress it up or just leave it simple. I like simple. Another pointer, see where the spray adhesive came through the Buckskin on the top of the mount? Make sure you dont put on too much adhesive. I had to redo that one :bash:
