Mind if I ask, what's an E2? Also, what the LS stand for? I assume the S is for spruce, but can't think og anything for the L right now.

I am sometimes braindead in the afternoons though

Lance--Didn't this stuff come--originally--from Craig Carter? I thought "LS" stood for lucky strike?
Any truth to that?

Steve

P.S.--Really nice looking work!

Steve, your story is correct.. It came to Hank via Craigs widow. Maybe Hank will chime in?

Man you have the CLEANEST joints I have ever seen, I'd love to see a pictorial on your process, they are just perfect.

I tried to get out to Hanks last year to grab some of that wood but the Kids had other plans once we hit the road and we never made it , it's still on my list of things I need to do.

I'll post some visual aids later of what I got done this weekend, it's quite alot. I've been getting up early in the morning and staying out in the shop all day to get caught up for Healdsburg, despite my Zircote mishap things are humming along.

Cheers
