Very nice! I picked up a book by a Brit that hand builds lap steels. How to Build a Lap Steel Guitar. That is my next build!! I found a lady online that developed a teaching curriculm for middle school kids in the Hawaiian public schools a few years ago. I've been in touch with her via email and told her I was all thumbs with 2 tin ears. She assures me "even I" could learn from her course.

Ponkster can play just like that... he's just shy!
Having seen the real thing, if I had a few quid and any talent, Id be buying that...
