Okay, i need a commercial....

Backs... seems like they're pretty easy..
Side bending? bend 'em until they fit...
Neck making? I been necking since i was 12...
Binding? like there's a science to that...
Bridge making? heck if beavers can do it....
Neck setting and tenon construction? woodworking 101...
Inlay? draw it. make it. Glue it. Pshaw!

Now, voicing and advanced voicing...!!!!   what's on there? Chladni patterns and what they mean and how to correct if they are off? Priceless!

lemme know more so i can know if i should bid!!

Hey Rob,

You can check out my site for little clips from the videos...more like
montages as not much talking is done in the clips..mainly just music and
video, but you'll get somewhat of an idea.

Thank you Hesh. 


I must admit being a long time reader of this forum (several months probably) and your great posts.


I especially like your tutorials / How-tos.  Please keep them coming.
