    Default Musical Instruments hidden

    I've been wondering for a while why Musical Instruments>Musical Instruments is hidden away where it's hard to find, considering it's popularity when compared to some other sections like Intarsia, Marquetry, Pyrography, etc.
    Whenever I visit, there are always a good number of people viewing.
    Wouldn't it be a little better out in the open, under 'Woodworking General', where it's easier to find?

    Edit: Further to that, just thinking about it, perhaps under 'Woodworking General', a sub-forum for musical Instruments, with sub-forums for 'Guitar Making', 'Hi-Fi Equipment', Woodwind' and 'Musical Instruments - Other', since guitar building is the most popular form of musical instrument making, with the largest number of followers?

    Sorry about all the edits - keeps locking up.

    Musical instruments is one of few things that has its own heading in the orange bar, right below the Woodwork Forums heading(top of page)

    True, right where nobody looks. Also no easy way to see the title of new posts, or who made the last post and when, unlike almost all other sections listed on the main forums index page. ('Last Post' column.)
    On top of this, it would be nice to have a section dedicated to guitar making, as suggested.
    A 'Musical Instruments' section under 'Musical Instruments' seems a bit silly, too.

    I've also noticed that those forums that have been moved to the bar across the top are no longer available in the search function when selecting a specific forum to search. Am I missing something or is something missing there?
