Congrats folks!
Sometime over the weekend, whilst "approving" registrations, one of them was # 4000!

We seem to be growing by about 1000 members a year.
Not to shabby!

Thanks to all of you who continue to post helpful, knowledgeable and insightful information here! That is what brings the value to the OLF and what continues to bring new folks!

What a great community!

Lance

The forum is like looking at things from the inside out....or taking something apart to find out how it works. Most posts are questions and answers I haven't ever thought of. What a great tool for us amateur luthier builders. I'm impressed! It's a daily learning session for me.

Thanks guys, ya know to draw an analogy, the OLF is not unlike building a guitar. We (Brock and I) have provided an instrument, you guys are playing it and creating the magic!

Pretty cool I think!
