The latest GuitarMaker is out and there is a fantastic article written by our very own Anthony Z. [:Y:]

Both Nelson Palen and JJ Donohue are also plugged in the article. Maybe I should reword that.......

Congrats AZ!!!!!!!!!!!

Got my copy today. I sat in my favorite restaurant and read it cover to cover over dinner tonight. Excellent! And the full color pictures throughout are awesome! Good job all. [clap]

I will be making some heat blanket bending forms using the method suggested in the newbie section this weekend.....

AZ...Great article and fantastic photos! This is a keeper! You give me far too much praise for editing! I can see a few "grammatical misses"! [uncle]

I'm just honored to know that an Archie Boy such as yourself would even want to associate with a mere flattop builder such as me! laughing6-hehe

But I will continue to pursue my elevation to your level as I conspire to reduce you to mine! laughing6-hehe

Looking forward to seeing you soon, my friend!

Hesh--You wouldn't believe how much I had to pay Anthony for the plug.

Great job Anthony! You took a rather dry subject and made it reader friendly.

None the less, there has to be some degree of masochistic tendency involved in trying to bend a strip of wood around a 1/4" radius.

I have an idea.

After AZ signs Al's butt cheek we should send Al around all over the world to OLFers and everyone should have the opportunity to sign Al's butt.

Rod told me that it was big enough...........

Anthony, my humblest apologies for littering your coming out thread with such debachary....but than again, what do you expect from a bunch of towel snappers

And Hesh, I only said Al's butt was big enough to have Most of the Auzzies and the UK OLFer's sign it wow7-eyes

Folks thanks for all the kind comments, that together with your acknowledgement is very much appreciated.

As for you clowns I call my close and personal friends………your benevolence is well noted [uncle]

As for Al's ahem, butt -- I was thinking that instead of autographing it we should ah graft it with a wedgie!

SEE! This is why I use the term "end graft"!! It prevents these kinds of understandings!
