Very few things in this world are both useful and beautiful.<br /><br />I've been following your post for a couple of years. But I read in your previous post that you were running out of topics. How about one that describes the skills you learned to be able to make these and how you learned them. Like peening etc. I'd be interested to know how you got here to making these great planes.Chris Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293643013821611045.post-9093582385332070402014-12-03T20:32:52.225-05:002014-12-03T20:32:52.225-05:00Thanks Natejb,

Wouldn't it be cool if you could find a piece big enough for a natural 'burst' on a guitar? It would likely weigh an additional 3lbs though.<br /><br />cheers,<br />konradKonradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03975387560456769892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293643013821611045.post-61690221139460099052014-12-03T20:31:00.569-05:002014-12-03T20:31:00.569-05:00Thanks Brad,
