Thank you all for the kind words. I'm very humbled to have won against such stiff competition. Each instrument that made the finale was special, and each deserves special recognition. Now if we can just convince Casey to pony up an engraved neck block plate for the next challenge. He and I have had a discussion about his engraving, and I am a huge fan. This challenge helped to make me a better builder, and each of you pushed me to make it right. All the best.....

While I know this is an old thread I just had to compliment the winner Jay. I LOVE me some bearclaw (and no I don't mean the Dunkin Donuts kind lol) , that is a beautiful top!

Bobby,
Thank you for the kind words!! I'd love to stop in and see you sometime. My daughter is a junior golfer, and we are in the Woodlands frequently.
