I am going to be installing the second window in my new barn. Trimming them both out.
Cutting out a encroaching tree that is taking over our back yard and finally doing 50 bales of hay for the girls horses. Does not look like I will see the inside of my shop until next week.

After a month in Thailand I'm getting back to finishing up two guitars whose finish cured while away.

What a great opportunity for your family!
A bucket list trip for me is to visit Angkor Wat.
Not sure if I will ever make it but I sure would love too.

I love traveling in Thailand!

Not this weekend, I am in the final construction stages getting ready to finish a Walnut\Spruce 00. I bought the Claro Walnut in the classified here.

John, what are you using for your dust collection ducting? Is that regular heat/air ducts? If it is, what type of collector are you using? I have considered this for my CV Max. Its 5 HP 220.

My wife has been gone for the last three weeks and is driving home Sunday with her mom, two days drive. So I have two days to clean the house :D

Other then that I have two Hercules wall hangers to mount and lots more work to do before launching the new shop end of August.

Yes that is regular ducting the I am using on my 5 HP/220 Clear Vue system. I have the clear view mounted in a separate closet to cut down on the noise. I love the system.

Lance and John
A lot of the heating and ventilation duct pipe is 28 and 30 guage. Too slight IMO as it will collapse
if all blastgates get closed. I have a similar homebuilt 5hp system and use 26 guage, though harder to find, it can withstand the suction with all gates closed, I think! Curious as to guage of yours though John.

I will try to find out the gauge, mine has the reinforced spirals and seems rigid. I often have all of the gates closed with no catastrophic effect. I never thought the vacuum in these systems were real high in terms of millibars but rather that they moved a lot of air.

I had planned to finish nailing this together today. It will be raffled off to support the Puget Sound Guitar Workshop (PSGW.org) scholarship program. This will be our third year doing this. Time to start packing!!

Specs: Sitka top, Black limba B&S, 25" scale, 00, 14 fret, Manzer wedge.
