I'd like to invite folks to visit my new website.
There is still much to be added so it's a work in progress.
Hope you enjoy it!
Best

All of the images in the gallery seem to be .gif files. This is why they look a bit funky. Jpeg is a much better option.

I'd make the links appear in a different colour and/or underlined so that they are easy to find. It wasn't until I read the comments here about the galleries etc. that I actually realised that there were links on the page and I had to go hunting around with the mouse to find them.

Nice site David! The pics were a little slow to load though. I would be interesting in hearing your ideas behind the different bracing you did for the lower harmonic bars on the cardboard guitar top. Very interesting. Your instruments are works of art. [clap]

Thanks Robbie,
If you are referring to the really odd cut off bars between the fan braces, the original is in exactly that configuration.
No one has mentioned (as with some of the other bracing in this guitar) that these are later additions, but it seems to me that they would make more sense if they were.

So the zig zag bars in between the fan bracing was original huh? Very interesting.
Any chance of talking you into doing a tutorial of how you do the motif design in the middle of the sides on that one guitar I saw on you site. That is a beautiful guitar!! You certainly did your homework on that one.
