Please RSVP here, folks, so we're all in one place! And we need to determine a time? I'm busy until 4pm, but I am right next door, so I'll zip right over. What time shall we convene?Continue

Hello Kimmer et al.: New to the group. I've built half a dozen guitars, diddly fiddles and basses over the last couple years. Interested to see what other people are up to. I guess I'd be most interested in jamming rather than building, but anythings cool. --Steve
PS That's a heartbreaking film you have there. Don't know if I have the stamina for the second part!
Hey Kimmer, what is the address. I will try to make it over in the early afternoon.
Just a reminder:
Hey all in Chicago! I'm in Japan right now but was thinking about the April 6 get together. I've left it open for the whole day but if visitors want to be certain to see other folks rather than just me and my space, you may want to talk it up a bit on this here wall. Remember also, if you want to work on something while you are in my shop, I'll have all the garage tools up and ready to go (bandsaw, joiner (could use some help with this new machine bought used), table saw, and Dewalt planer. There's a host of saws, parts, electronics and more in the annex (okay, the basement). I'm working on a few when I get home from this job on the first. And, as a bit of self promotion outside the CBG world, I have a documentary I've been working on for a few years premiering that night on PBS. It's in two parts: April 1st is the first installment (2 hrs.) long. April 2nd is the 3 hr. conclusion. It was made in conjuction with WGBH in Boston and Frontline. It's called 'Kind Hearted Woman'. Hope a few check it out. Other than that, see some of you on the 6th of April.

I'm new to CBG building and I would love to hang with other builders. Currently I'm unemployed with minimal funds. This sounds like a great event to attend and I will mark this on my calendar.
