Finally after waiting for the postman and counting the days, I finally got it and man did I get it I ordered some maple from the bargain bin and Doug also gave me a deal on some spruce. What a great tone! and the extras were awesome I am glad I used a sponser and got some great wood from Doug at Blue spirit tonewood (shamless plug ) cant wait to try out the other sponsers. I would like to thank all the people at OLF for providing such great info sometimes to questions I didnt even know I wanted to know

Thanks

I'm very happy for you Zac, now, be careful of this, hide your credit cards a thousand miles away from home brother or you'll end up like Mattia and others, having so much wood you'll have to find storage in another country!!!!

Ican't wait for my credit card to be paid

It is hopeless. My credit card has not been at zero since I started building.

Zac,

Must be nice with all the wood and your great work space. I'm tring to get just a bench area to work in but to no avail yet. You should check out the way past cool ukulele photos I posted under the heading "Fantastic bridge design". I love the creative concept.

Philip

Heheheh welll I do have all that wood but my current "workspace" is about 36" x 20' yes that is inches x feet hopefully will be moving soon to get a little more space. Thanks to the tax man I will be getting more in the way of books and tools hope to get started soon
