This bowtie shaped inlay is known as a Dutchman, and is inset to keep large or small checks from opening up any longer. Simple but very effective, and now somewhat of a trademark.

Sizzle!

Slabs of that size are hard to come by, and that accounts for some of the cost. However, the labor involved in making tables, benches, etc... is minimal. It's much easier than joining boards together to build a wide piece, and there's no edge treatment. Sanding is also only on a flat plane.

Fitz and I were grossed out.

Cool stuff! My favorite part is the Dutchman, I love them. Can anyone spot it?

The box is made of leftovers from two of my favorite, personal projects...the figured Cherry from my β22/σ22/TPA Darwin cases, and the Canary wood from my K1000 box. The stand is just the right proportions for the Staxen Al.

You're so domestic Colin.

Hang in there Shelly. How could he not get better with someone like you in his corner? Get some rest, and we'll send get well vibes through the airways.

Not on your life! However, my new tile saw may do the trick. I think the diamond blade will do the job, but it'd be a painfully slow cut, to avoid overheating the motor.

Marc and I spent the day in my shop, cutting out pieces for his complicated, single driver, corner horn speaker project. Multifaceted pieces, with different angles on all sides, curved pieces making up the sides of the horn section, that taper as they curve out. All this without a good cutting diagram, but we got over halfway done, and finished the most difficult pieces. Long but fun day!

I left that part out since it only depresses me.

Ken, since it's not in Texas, I'll give you tree fiddy and a cookie for it.

All sheep spend their days eating, sleeping and shitting. I'd call that genius!

As long as their niche is at your house Ari, I'm OK with them. I really don't like anything about them.

That still won't make it longer Marc.

Dusty 15 euros sounds really cheap, I bet the second cost is accurate, but I think asking for a line item breakdown is just fine too.

Oddly enough I'm only fond of using that word to describe men. If women make me angry I look for another word.

Aren't mountain valleys where bears relieve themselves?

I remember my bike riding days well, and this seems like it might actually be seen, therefore slowing down the number of people who plow into me. Also it would be a lot more stable on gravel or knurled pavement. And I think it looks pretty cool too.

Happy Birthday!

Good luck Ken!

So I'm having a midlife crisis if I think it's actually kind of cool?

Happy Birthday Tyler!
