First one I've tried so an experiment and promised it to the lady who supplied me with a sack of spent shotgun shells.

Again pic taken on phone so not good. Finish is just sanding sealer and wax to keep it natural

The missus wants one Paul, can't for the life of me understand why so will need to take more care and a nicer bit of wood than scrap mahogany. I think it would be better with a drilled cartridge end in the centre as well.

Good idea with the cartridge in the middle.

Maybe the hands could be shotgun profiles.
