As Doug said Thank you for taking the time to set this up. I have enjoyed every minute of the build, and have since just completed my second (a mandolin) this weekend and started my third. I think im well and truly on that slippery slope.

As others have said, a thank you should go to you Wud! This was a great idea for a challenge. Even those who didn't finish were coaxed into getting started a first or continuing on to do a second/third project. I'm sure all who participated will look back fondly on the experience.
