Hey Lance, maybe you could make her a "bridge"




All right, lets get the next drawing started. I've got four necks.

WOW!!!!

This is unbelievable!!!

I'm speechless...this is so generous of everyone here, and I'm such a new
member, this is quite the warm welcome.

Its safe to say that I will always be singing your praises for putting this
together.

Thanks again everyone.

And Lance, be sure to give a special thanks to the lovely little helper in
the picture that made this possible.EHeisler38765.8694791667

Well, I'm just glad it wasn't me...! I don't have room for anymore wood. I'm gonna have to start selling off a lot of what I have.

Wait till you guys see what Don's getting rid of....!

[QUOTE=ATaylor] Evan you lucky dog! Congrats!

Believe me, I'll do my best, but I'm almost embarassed to admit that I am
quite new to this. But rest assured, I will do my best, and I'm something
of a perfectionist, so hopefully the final product will one to be proud of.

And everyone can also be assured that the instruments built with these
supplies will hold even more value for me, for the rest of my life.

And like my girlfriend told me, this must be an omen, telling me that this
is something I need to do.

Wow, so much planning to do...I better get my act together quick! The
people demand results!

Thanks for the added motivation guys!

I'll have to try and not imagine all the forumites looking over my
shoulder at the bench, I might get nervous and make a mistake!   

But really, thanks everyone for your enthusiasm and the generosity. This
is such a wonderful place to go here, and so useful, so a sincere thank
you to all the members (how's that for a speech)!

I sent out a few e-mails to formally thank those that put this together, so
hopefully I got everyone that made a donation..
