Uncle John, and others who commented on my pics, my apologies for not responding, I don't keep up with messages and forums and such the way I'm probably supposed to, but it's easy to get distracted, like earlier, I was opening my email program and this wood I found at the curb caught my eye. Went and picked it up and over an hour later I had it apart. It was some kind of leg I think, two pieces of beautiful hardwood over an inch thick and, yup, over two inches wide. Two necks. Woo Hoo! Long story short, just remembered email... Got to go measure those future necks. Are we having fun yet? I reckon so.  

Eggsample for sure ! Yep BIG opera vocalist sins he got the new coop can't shut him up , but that goes whit living in the country,  im not bothered by it but i can see the nextdoor woman hate him !, but here there are all kinds of animal & sounds in my neighbourhood! greeeeeettsszz on ye John !

Thanks for the friend request, UJ. I'm honored!

Me too!..I love the art he has done

as for the radios...don't sweat it, for almost 80 years every house had a radio in every room,...there are ga-zillions of them on eBay at any given time...just keep looking, usually when I miss a deal I end up finding a better or cheaper one and then I'm thankful the deal fell thru in the first place as I ended up getting something better : )

If its a tube radio you have to gut it : (

Not all radios can be hacked, BUT...the face of this radio is set up perfect for an amp....leave the speaker in it, then use one hole for the cable guitar plug in and the other one for the on off volume switch, these old plastic bodies are perfect for that....and try keep the speaker...it will sound great with that old speaker.....you'll just need a amp kit....get the 5 watt one, the extra power makes a difference

Hi John! working whit what we got ! a old & crappy tuner is still sturdier then a wooden peg ,and takes longer to make on a lathe ! it gives this Japanese chineese kind a look to it and thats not what im looking for. greeeettsszzz A.D.

Hi John! its compiled from left over stuff ! you can assemble these open tuners allmost any way! the broken turnner  i replase whit a self made, kabel stopper you know the ones you use on a brake or clutch kabel on the Motorbike, i drill the hole out and screw it on the square end of the wormpin of the tuner, that way i saved a lot, and works well. Greeeeettssszzz A.D.

Hi and thanks for your prayers!

I erased the video, I got hate mail already ...so fast!!!

 I didn't mean to imply I wanted someone to buy me a new car!...I was trying to say I expect God to work a supernatural miracle, because that was scripture says, that he wants to work in our lives, HE will solve our problems ...that could be thru a mechanic or a friend or some kind of unbelievable story or work in a random act of kindness.

 I forget that the world was full no people who don't like the topic of God.

anyways, I was real sad this morning but he Holy Sprint got me out of bed and filled me up with so much faith that I KNOW the problem will get solved.... I know it will somehow!

John God Bless you!

Hi John 

Thanks for your comments on the two latest builds.

I noticed you made  some comments a while ago  which I did not respond to,sorry for that.For some reason all my pictures reset to the "do not follow" setting so I'm not getting emails when folks comment.Being a dinosaur ain't got a clue how to fix that.
