Dave Lynas said… Hey Stains, I've been looking at your photo album. Nice to see all the in process photos. I like your fretting jig. Looks like it works nice for you. I like the fiddle too. I've been wanting to make a fiddle. I think they are the more difficult projects. A few more boxes and I'll be ready. I'm on #20. It will be a diddley bow, my 4th one of those. I have a nice JUJU one string pup to use and I want to do it justice.

- Thanks for the comments on the video and poor carpentry. My dad said, "A good carpenter can hide his mistakes." I'm not too great at hiding mine!
