Marvin, where were you 3 weeks ago?
Bill's palette is made of 1/8" birch plywood. His horn design does take care of the balance since it is smaller.
Mike Taylor's (from North Carolina) is very light, Karin, but it has extra wood added to the beveled thumb area around the cut. He does not use the lead. It measures 24 x 16. This size is hard to do the freezer trick!
Marvin can you post an image of your palette? I think the rubber in the thumb hole could be help to my dreaded arthritis.
