I'll do some final profiling before I call it good but I have me a false stem fashioned and attached. I used some apoxie sculpt to get a nice fit and also wood glue for securement.  I think its a bit bulky but I'll take it, My breast hook wasn't fitting great so I used the original for a pattern and just enlarged the size. I finished shaping it this evening.

Notched out the top of the frames for frame head irons. Not sure what I will use yet for material, but I'll find something. Some decent reference was found in the Dory book. 

I thought it was a good time to apply a thin coat of primer.

While I had some staining going this evening I hit my oars for some color. I had rounded out the handle end a little yesterday with a needle file for final shaping. Topped them off with some home brew finish.
