    Default Thanks for having Me

    Hi everyone
    I'm new here and just wanted to tell you a little about myself.
    I have been a Woodworker since 1988
    Was a Tool and Die Maker by trade but since retired for 15 years
    I started making Lap Steel Guitars about 5 years ago and have since started on a Parlor Guitar.
    I'm 77 years old and believe in making my own tools but have bought a few power tools to help in my builds.
    I built a copy of the Rickenbacker Lap Steel but my Brother took a shine to it and now it sits in his living room (oh well)
    Got some plans for a Jose Ramirez I 1909 that I plan on working on soon.
    If this site allows I will post my build as it progresses.
