Title: Couple of rare ones for me
Post by: firedup on April 07, 2013, 08:43:26 PM

I really enjoy making shortboxes so I don't make to many longboxes. But I wanted to do a few this year. Pay no attention to the woodburning. Witter talked me into upgrading my $10 burner so I HAD TO USE IT. :D My wife said it looked like an ugly upset turkey wearing an uglier sweater (she also said she had one like it back in the 80's). The poplar and cedar is more traditional sound from a longbox. The sassafrass and cedar is a high pitched and raspy screamer. I like it.  8) Had one little glitch that had me twisted all up but thanks the THE GOBBLER COMMANDER...problem solved. Thanks Chuck. ;)

I really like that sassy one. Hard to beat a good sassafras long box.
