Hey Terry,

Please do send the link. Maybe it will get more people over to the OLF and also let people know why a hand built guitar is such a special instrument.

Tim and Cecil, I was hopig that the photos would serve as ideas for others. I wish you good succes with adaptions to your saws.

Thanks

Shane

Thanks for posting this chronicle.
Man, That looks like hard work! But, you have a beautiful office! Looks like I need to have you cut me off a piece of that lutz soon...
Question on your sled, do you have to re-adjust the depth of cut after every slice or is the depth controlled by the stop piece behind the blade? I think I just answered my own question...

Thanks very much for the post. It really helps the rest of us appreciate the work involved in obtaining tonewood. I also really appreciate the care and human touch that you are putting into this enterprise. Bravo!

Thanks for the post, Shane. I really like seeing pictures of where that fine stuff comes from and people who process it.
