"Mega ditto" (so to speak)

Kathy is a first class lady and a great, although too humble, luthier!

Hey....this was pretty darn EXCITING for me.... bliss bliss.... I am someone who has never ever won ANYTHING!!!! (Well, I did win $475 once, long ago, on a dime progressive video poker machine at Reno....but that wasn't actually a contest-type thing....I like to think it was my great skill at video poker that did it...ha ha.)

At any rate, I was truly surprised when I happened to check the Twitter thing yesterday (I've barely ever used it) and saw that I had won!! THANKS SO MUCH, Lance and all! What a great surprise! I even had to look up what "black limba" is — I'd never heard of it. It looks like a very nice wood, and I'll be excited to figure out what to do with it, maybe next summer! (I have no idea yet what my project will be next summer.)

Kathy

Kathy,

If your wondering what to do with Black Limba, look up the post from ColinS from about a month ago. He really enjoyed working with it.
