I was able to track down the link under the old filing system, BUT the link that Rod had to his instruction sheet is dead. I kept a copy of the instructions, but I have no way of posting them for everyone.

The beauty of the new site is that we can upload PDF's here too, now I don't have to worry bout hosting it :D and they can stay here forever.

(I'm nearly computer illiterate anyway)

Here you go Gary.

I am glad you ask that question. I missed the original post.

Great work Rod.

Thanks for posting that Rod,
Just what I needed, I bought everything last fall before I left for Key West and when we got back a few weeks ago I couldn't find them.
They will probably show up in the fall again.

Anyone know where the word 'trogy' comes from? It's not in the Oxford.

Howard, I can't find it now but I remember someone asking what Troji meant last time around too, and I seem to recall it meant something like "triple" in Czech. I thought it might have been used to say "third hand" or something similar. Makes sense if we want this to be like a third hand for holding the guitar. Should just be called a guitar vise though, I'd like to know why Jean Larrivee called it a Troji.
