Russell,

Nice to see you back posting again mate. Hope that all is well and that you are managing to squeeze some quality guitar making time in with the "other stuff:.

I had an e-mail from him this morning, he says he's fine, and that he'll drop by the forum.

I have missed Russell as well, welcome back mate

I hope that your visits will soon become as regular as they once were.

We have some great people here on the list and I do not want to taking anything away from them. However, your place at the table of sages has grown cooler, please warm the wood with your enlightened input once again sunshine.

Cheers

Kim

gee shucks guys

Dave

Nice title hows it going buddy ? Thinks have been a bit manic, but I'm back in the shop shortly for a while.

Lance

Things are good, I have been working away from home a lot, but the new venture is working well and giving me a much needed boost to my finances !! Things should settle down a bit in the new year and afford me more building time.

Hesh

Good to see you buddy, how are things with you ? drop me a PM.


Serge

I dropped you a reply to your PM Buddy

Colin

I sent you another email

Craig

Thanks Mate

Sam

Good to see you how is the building going ?

Billy

Play Nice

Kim

Thanks Mate, I have missed you all too

So far so good. I've stickered the tonewood, and waiting to get to work on the stacked neck/scarfe joint, when my mahogany blanks arrive from a Luthier suppliers.

Ain't rushing this one, as my kids/husband suffered a lack of quality time with the distraction of my last build.

I know you've been busy yourself; have you done any guitar building yourself, lately?
