Cool cool tony. Someone says "I want a walnut guitar" tony says "you are getting black limba and you are going to like it!"

The waiting list makes a lot of sense, I'll prolly never have that convenience so I'll just keep mine inside on the shelf :)

I don't sticker anything unless it is wet, or I intend to use it within the next few months. All of my wood is stacked on a plastic shelving unit from Home Depot. Also, all of my wood is in an unheated garage with no AC in the summer. My wood truly is seasoning. Storing everything in a 45%RH, climate controlled environment is great when you are preparing it to use, but for some reason it is stuck in my head that the wood should be exposed to the temperature swings of summer to winter, which, where I live in the north east, can range from 9*F where it was last week, to 95* F in the summer.



or like this week in MD (home of the Ravens) it was 66 degrees on Tuesday and snow on Thursday.

Alex-What precautions do you take against bugs that eat wood?

that's something I've not considered. Are bugs a problem for anyone??
