Thanks Danny! I guess you figured out that anything larger than a Dremel is too cumbersome...
Actually I have to credit the design/mod to the purfling jig from Stew-Mac to Bill Bussman.
I have to credit you for going all out and trying an oval right off though!

"And I still remember all three chords"

Loose quote "never played mandolin till I wrote this song, wrote it on mandolin had one around the house. Nobody can tell me I'm playing it wrong I wrote it."

Steve, I mean K.O. wow7-eyes Your secrets safe dude. Love the work BTW. Thanks for the links. I didn't think Ry Cooder was ever that young. And I didn't know he plays mando. Not surprised though.

Thanks Dennis! The sound clips coming when Hesh and I get together to play Duelling Smoke On the Water. :D

Ciao For Now,
Danny

that is really pretty. I love the maple binding on the maple body separated with a black line. The theme just wraps around the instrument. Very nice.
