Larry Presnall welcomed me to his shop today. He was kind enough to
help me sand some sides, a back, and a soundboard on his
reDONKulously large drum sander. He also bent my sides for me in his
bending machine. He also lent me his OM form so I could use and copy
it. AND he sent me home with one of his older bending machines!
Only thing I was able to do in return for him was pass along some love
from Walter K. in the form of an extra extra (and no, that's actually not
redundant) fingerboard he sent me.
There's still a ways to go on this build, but Larry definitely got me over
the hump and I feel like it's downhill from here!
Many thanks to Larry, as well as many thanks to Lance et al for creating
and maintaining the OLF community!
