I guess I wanted to try one of these, so here it is. Sounds pretty good. And less unnatural feeling to play than I expected. Will likely gift it away.

Never played by Chet Atkins.

Ha, Ritz!   Oh, Dave!  That would be great.   Patrick, it sounds and plays pretty nice.  It is looking for a good home.   Thanks, Jim.

Looks good Unc!

I was able to check this build out on a recent visit when it wasn't quite done and I must say it turned out really nice John! 

I know the thing that impressed me most was the way you carved the headstock out, it just looks very nice. I like the positioning of the knot in the wood too, makes it look like an angled pickup :-) 

Can't wait to give it a go, not that I'm a very good lap player but I can make some interesting "noise"

Those were SOUP POTS, Dave!  Not chamber pots.    Strictly hygienic and pure as grandma's cooking.

Rocket science Unc. Anyone who can make a guitar out of a chamber pot lid is very complicated. In a good way...

Thanks, 126.   Sounds complicated Dave.
