You may not want to leave those PF's sitting in the window. Long UV light exposure could shift the color on the wood. If they lay in one position you may end up with a shift in color on one side of the handle. A couple hours of incidental exposure a day is not an issue but 8 hours of direct sunlight could have an effect on the wood.

No worries Dave, they were just there for the moment. I am waiting for a couple of nice wall mounts to hold them........out of the sun. But also note, my windows are triple-panes and UV filtered.

A grinds catch tray for a Nino grinder and a hopper lid. Hope you work out because that hopper lid is heavy. That is a big hunk of Cocobolo, and a portafilter handle for a GS3.

That's a gorgeous wood, looks almost like it was crossed with an exotic tortoise shell.
