How'd you make this? If it's from an old barrell is it like a cap on some other wood or just that...?

Must be vintage scaffold boards. The end protectors on modern boards usually read “STOLEN FROM …”

It’s a whisky crate cap on a poplar tele body.

milled 8mm from the body and glued the “cap” on...
