Good luck on that job, Coe!

Just finished my daughter's bedroom makeover, with loft bed. Finished another stage in the workshop transformation with new circuit and dust collection. I'd moved the guitar project from the uninsulated workshop down to the darkroom-converted-to-a-shop for the winter.
Now I can move it back up to the workshop. Really thinking seriously about insulating it now! Wish I'd thought of that before we moved in 7 yrs ago -- it was absolutely empty then, but who'd have thought my addiction to building would have developed so ... um .... completely?

Now my son wants a loft bed too!

At least I'm startin to make some progress on the Terz build again.

It is the busy time of year for me in the southern states. I design/engineer water features, fountains and gardens and most of my time of late has been spent sitting at my Drafting table and in front of my computer with Auto-Cad. It is nearly as fun as building guitars!

I am restoring a 30' ketch Rigged sailboat that I hope to Lauch before the end of May.

My focus right now is on poker. My quest is to win my way into the World Series of Poker main event since I can't aford the $10,000.00 entry fee. I get close but have not made it yet. This month has been fairly decent as I have won a small tournament, placed in others and have won several single table tournaments. I missed going to a million dollar tournament main event by 35 places. Last year I finished in very high in the Los Angeles Challenge Poker Tournament and besides money, I won an invitation to Phil Hellmuth, s birthday party in Hollywood. Met some famous people, had entertainment, ate and drank all we wanted. My wife liked drinking Dom Perignon all night. I could have played poker with the big name pros that night but the $1,000.00 (to charity) entry fee was out of my budget.
