No pictures yet but i figured i'd pop in.

I've got the soundhole rosette done, bracing done and carved. I've got the back braced and carved. I've got the neck roughed out, and the tail block and head blocks roughed out. I have to fine tune the tail and head blocks and drill for hardware. I'll be working the neck over the rest of the summer.

My basement is around 60% rh right now and will be through the summer, so my plates are stored and waiting for assembly until drier weather.

Which is good, because i'm knee deep in building my kitchen cabinets. Just finished the face frames for the bathroom vanity.

I gotta tell ya, i was so worried to build my own cabinetry, but since i built a guitar, it seems so easy. I guess fine tuning our attention to details, and keeping our tolerances to 1/64" makes building boxes seem kinda simple.

any way, that's me.
