I'm depressed, I hesitated to long, went and had lunch with my wife and missed it. I'll get over it, but let us know when you catch up.

Thanks

Mark;

Let us know when you start taking orders again.

Steve;

Nice work. I assume Fleta. I too would be interested in knowing the specs you chose for your fans and for your top.

Hey Robbie and Ronn,

You guys are spooky. It's a Fleta. #474, 1968, to be exact. The fan braces are 5mm wide X 6 mm high. The only change I plan to make on the pattern is to brace around the soundhole (similar to the plan you use in your video, Robbie) rather than the 2mm plate in Fleta's design. The reason for the change is more lack of material than anything else. I don't want another delay awaiting more spruce and I have brace material on-hand.

Everyone, thanks for the kind words, it's been a tough week and I needed the encouragement.

Regards, Steve
