When it comes to slow... err, what was I gonna say...? oh yeah, I'm too laid-back to care about winners and losers... for me, it would just be kinda interesting to just finish something... ;)

I work best under pressure and in a competitive environment!  It's a genetic defect for sure!!!!  :sad:

Guess what!?!  While I was spraying Sniper's bass, I did S&S on the Bo.  Cherry tint next week when I have some time!

(Uwe... I just fell off my sofa due to a sudden shock... is there a litigation case to be heard...?)

It's back... ;D

Just thought, I shouldn't be so cheeky considering my restoration schedule...  :o ;D

I love the optimism... 8)

I hate to say this publicly but I'm seriously considering re-doing the Peter Cook in black - as much as I like the fin I'm disapointed with the "fin" quality - it has a lot to do with the OTT veneer I used and the way I had to split it up as it turned out to be "twisted"...

I may be back "working" so I need to "get-busy" in the shed... :o

We're back home from Kansas and then a trip to Albany,NY for a funeral for my wife's grandma.  She was 103 years old, what a lady.  Born and bred in the Fatherland and came to the US at 17 to seek her fortune.  You can't beat those German genes!

More finish on the Billy tomorrow.

My condolences on the loss...103 is quite a run.

And speaking of German Jeans....
