Thanks Jim. I just got another big tin to banjolize. :^)

Nice Dave! It's good to hear that she hung in with the other instruments.

Thanks Duck. Took her to Monday jam and she held her own with two fiddles, two mandolins, two guitars and a flute. She's powerful.

Great build Dave.  Lots of character!

Beauty Dave!

Thanks King. I can't wait for Monday night and our weekly jam to try her on the band. I've got two new builds to bring.

So much character - a fine, fine build!

You could both woo the gal and paddle the boat too... :^)

Might even float Uncle. The neck reminds me of a wheel barrel handle I replaced last Summer. I'm going to check Menards for my next oak neck.

Good deal, Dave.  And perfect for canoe or kayak trips.   (both the elixir and the fine paddle head tinjo)
