My show of pots and guitars opened on Friday the 12th of July. A chance to show my guitars as well as my pots. The Procrastinators played (our band) and it was a lot of fun.

Juha, the inside out guitar is my best idea. Don't be afraid. If the top is stove in and the whole guitar is falling apart, what do you have to loose. It came apart easily. Shaping the bracework was fun and a functional archtop is the result. It lives....
Hey Chris, don't worry there are two of the guits not for sale. The inside out guit and the blue goose produce crate guit. Some have high prices. I'll be a little astonished if many if any sell. The most popular store in Sandstone is the dollar store. Good people though. ....
Thanks Chris, Chuck, South Paw and Juha. It's worth it if only to get your reactions. You make my day. Thanks. I got to spend the afternoon at the garden and it rained gently as we weeded. Ate brats and potatoes with roasted onions from the garden and first broccoli. Life is good.
Dave mate if you take them all home it's a shame mate, three months could start the ball rolling, the pots should do well, I love the face ones, those African ones that your early history shows with the faces on are beyond measure, you know the ones I mean I am sure, if your like me and took the plunge with the early retirement and now the current situation has made a mess of our plans, hey mate we have been through a lot worse and come out of the other side OK. Bugger me, we never did stop smiling mate. :) Eyes are killing but still smiling, weird thing is the elderflower is just blossoming and that is three months and more too late? The Englishman's grape, with you every foot of the way mate, Chris. :)
Dave mate I am with Juha K can you bare to part with it? In the whole universe that has to be the only inside out guitar ever!!!!!!!!!!!! As the father of inside out guitars there might be a population explosion. Anyway just thinking about a stick for you mate, not a walker as you do OK on your pins anyway but just got a thing in my head, a dress stick? Maybe a bit too British upper lip for your liking? Maybe not, well hot here too, eighties and a bit, tomato leaves are shriveling up with sun scorch. Must get myself ingear with some horn work, hope you sell loads, three months has got to make a good return mate? Must do, all the best, Chris. :)
Thanks Maddog. I like doing the faces by sculpting the soft clay by pushing it out from the inside. The only extra clay added is to make the noses bigger....
Hey Chris, no mint made, just space to fill till these guits come home at the end of the run. But for now i can walk through the house without bumping guits. Wish there were Procrastinator pics to show, but i was busy playing and not thinking of photos. I took these before my gallery talk on Saturday when it was quiet and few people were there.

That inside-out guit is mind boggling. Makes me want to do something to my own guitars. Something that I might regret..
