Hey Gang,
Here is the latest. I am working with a good friend and fellow builder James Russell on getting jigs put together for automating the routing processes (cutting neck slots and pickup slots) that will greatly increase productivity. We are slowly getting more and more organized as the personal belongings move out of the shop and into the house. Here are a couple of pics of the wood racks:
Big pile of Braz Rosewood:

Neck stock and some of the maple tops, you can also see the flamed redwood on the end. THe bottom two racks are Indian rosewood blanks. Above those are the Braz chunks:

The house is ALMOST liveable!! It is small but turning out very good.
Here is a pic from about a month before I bought it:

My mouth is just watering knowing that new pictures are going to start appearing in the progress section again soon too. Congrats again and I cant wait for this place to start getting active again soon!

Thanks Mike. I know it has been quite a hangup with everything hinging on the house renovation. I have also met with my web designer and we are going to do a major overhaul of the site. Thanks for hanging in there guys.

The house looks beautiful. Did you lay down real wood or did you do the Pergo floor? We just did our livingroom in the 30 year Pergo floor and it looks awesome. I would have love to use real wood, but the money just wasn't there.

Wow that looks awseem Jason. I didn't know you had so many bodies worked on. Jason, does that Braz pile include the last stash we found?

[imported_Schroeder]

Ya Stu, it is in there. 5-6 of the large blocks are from that stash.
