Well Rich, it seems our friend Hesh is quite voluble... Ahem....

Couldn't find his tutorial even in the archives or searching just 'Hesh' in the search engine...

Maybe he can chime in and help. I don't remember the title of his thread....

Tradition and Technology by Cumpiano and Natelson. A good book to have if you don't already

Thanks guys. This is a big help. I have done many bridges but wanted some different approaches, jigs, etc. Several great ideas here.

Hey John Mayes. I bought your videos - all of them and loved them. In fact, I have been using your approach to date and was jusyt looking for some different approaches as I am working on one now. Your videos are all great and you one funny dude to boot

Hesh, you started a trend with your stealth look. That is what I am going with on this brazilian and it is looking pretty nice but need to finish.

THANKS AGAIN GUYS AND GALS
