    Thanks Peter. This one is my first venture into curvy. I've avoided bending wood so far. Most of my builds have been boxes of my own fashion or found relics. I've fixed lots of mandos, guitars, ukes that are curvacious. This was fun, more coming but boxes will continue too.

    Dave, again a lovely build! And I agree with Bluesheart, the organic shape adds to the beauty of it.

    Thanks Bluesheart. It's not real symetrical. Neither is my foot...

    Has a real nice organic feel to it.

    Thanks George. In my old age, these homemade instruments sure do perk me up.
