Hey,

I just wanted to check in and say hello.

I have been working full time this summer as a carpenter and hav`nt had a chance to spend much time here, or in my guitar shop. Planning on building a guitar or two this winter and I am excited to get back to it after a nice long break.

talk to me sucka`s..... whats been going on?

Matt

Woof, woof.....

Hey Matt we miss ya but understand that you are busy. Man could I use a carpenter right now to help me build my new shop. Wanna visit Michigan?

Matt, it's nice to see that I'm not the only one who's been busy at everything except building these guitars we love! Maintaining two properties and house renovations on both have kept me extremelly busy this summer.

I'm sort of glad that summer is over. Now I can head back to the shop and build some guitars! Well...after I've completed a few jigs...(which might be the reason I've been avoiding the shop too...)

When all else fails, clean the shop.

Or could it be "Whatup Dawgs?"?

Hey Mr. Gage, whatup wit' you? Been crazy busy here up North of you. I'm about to empty my shop and turn it into a family room. Sellin' off the tools and the cnc I just finished. Or maybe not. But sometimes I feel like it. I have so much wood I can hardly walk down there, and therefore I don't get anything done. Such is life in the city.

Hope all is well...

Salute to the Carpenter Matt.

I got to do my share of the carpentry gig this summer.

Honey-do renovations of the kitchen and hardwood floors in the dining and living rooms.

My customers are sure I died.

Can't wait to see some of your works of winter.

Looks like you dodged the hurricane....

No little ones, except of the feline variety....and the shop isn't really getting turned into a family room. It's just that I'm never in the shop, so it does me no good. Wood? I always have more than I can possibly use. Just bought a bunch of HRW recently too. Not that I need it...
