As I gaze outside at the ,(finally), 70 degree day, I wonder if I'll get out there before Christmas!
Most of this,(less three finished inlays), came in over the last week and a half! This doesn't even touch the inlays on paper! (See my help below).

Someone let me know how summer was!!!



Joshua is not only my best "work" but my only apprentice

Nothing wrong with it, maybe people got their IRS checks back?

Paul,

I see a weight rack hiding there in the background. Are you a lifter? Or, is it good for haning guitars on!

Jeff,
You got me!
Since getting into the inlay side of things, I've become a deflated weight lifter! The plates do occasionally flatten tops well

I bought that cookie cutter last year.... Goes by the name of Techno. Quiet fellow, just sits there. Very strong though, holds quite a few fingerboards without complaints!

Seriously, the CNC was damaged in freight from Texas. The terrible ordeal with the claim process along with an overwhelming amount of hand work has put it on hold...for now
so if you know of any good cookie cutters....
