Congratulations Jim on placing third in the plumber challenge!

Thanks Dani and Bear. The neck did start to bend like I expected. That's why I planned it strictly as a slide git since the action height can be as high as you want and doesn't have to be perfectly in line with the neck like you'd need for fretting.

Thanks Richard. I plan to do just that!

Nicely done Sir! I'd never have believed that some thin plumbing pipe could hold the tension from three strings, even dowel packed. Learning something new every day. Thanks Jim.

Jim, I'm taking seconds! I was thinking this Fourth of July people will be gathering in groups of family and friends, what a great sing-a-long song for everyone to join in and sing! Crank up the sound join in and watch the smiles and good cheer infect everybody! Just thinking! Maybe even be a plumber in the crowd!

Sounds like a fun verse! lol

Comment by Jim Morris on June 30, 2017 at 1:11am

Thanks Derek. The next verse will involve me almost setting my beard on fire with the propane torch when startled by the beady eyed critter in the crawl space.

Definitely a tune worth finishing. Love those spur of the moment ones. I try to do the plumbing within my limited abilities and then call in an expert when things get real messy :)
