Well, my PPA got a makeover today...
Gone is most of the 20-Series ParMetal case. All that's still being used is the metal base. In is 1/2" Zebrawood & 1/4" Finland Birch.
It took longer than expected, though when doesn't it? But I'm pretty pleased w/ how it came out.

Wow. Nice Job! All it needs is a wooden knob.

Thanks... Though I don't think I'll be going with a wooden knob. I heart my huge THL knob, and the Zebrawood is very difficult to match.

Here's a better pic...
