I think I hit the jackpot....
Look at this 2x6 I found yesterday. I saw this, and it started screaming "BUY ME!!!!!"
I was thinking about this being the 2x6 version of the steel plans from here, but I think I'm gonna make a baritone out of this...

Hi, Isn't it amazing how under normal times, a bit of knotty wood would get dismissed as unusable in a shop, but then, beauty being in the eye of the beholder, a piece like this manifests itself, and lo, a real good looking instrument begins its life..... a splendid find there if I may hazard an opinion...!!!! Interested to see a finished result sometime...!!! I bet those figures will pop out when a finish is applied....!!!
