Title: I got a few longboxes real close--couldn't wait to show em off
Post by: jmck on January 19, 2010, 05:27:06 PM
Alright Bullock....I am gonna be just like you when and IF ..I ever grow up. Been playing with a few longboxes latley and even though they are not finished up,,,,I just couldn't stand not posting them. I tried some a few years ago, but had junk for wood and never got a saw back after them. I got me some good body and lids and decided to give it another run. Man I am excited. These things are Porters style --they will scream if ya want em to and will even get down right soft . They are easy as all get out to run...don't even have to cant the lid.
I will get the tounge oil finish on them and the story of the wood and repost em when they are done---I may even steal Bullocks artwork  *peep* *bannana* ROTFLMBO ROTFLMBO ---right now they are in the raw. I was so excited at the way they sounded (and all these Tim's puttn out) that I had to BRAG a little ROTFLMBO ROTFLMBO.
The walnut body surprised me when I got it sanded down---it has some figuring in it I never saw when I ripped the board out.

Now now... something is missing  *peep*

Great job man!  I'll have to give you a ring and listen.  Meant to tonight, but having to help the kid with some school work :(  Not much fun if it doesn't deal with turkeys!
