Thought I would share some photos of three blocks I recently received from Jack Stoddart. They are 15-20 years old..The set of two are for Coppers hawks, and the large one for male golden.. It has an interesting shape which I will point out .

From the front, notice how the front is so much wider and closes in to a v at the back..Intersting to say the least,,

Strange old shape Ken but if it produces a good hood thats what matters.

Yes Jack sells blocks,, some of the finest hoodmakers out there have or are still using them, John Moran, Clayton Smith are a few that come to mind..

DD yup that eagle block is different,, Jack studied eagles for many years awhile back he told me,, had some incredible insight on them and fitting of hoods,,
