Phillip - Great work! You have raised the bar for the rest of us! Any chance of a sound file?


Thanks, Steve. I'm trying to do my best. :)

I'm afraid my skills as a player aren't up to par, but I might record something anyway. Should be entertaining anyway. :D

Today I finished sanding the back and sides. Now I'm going to try using shellac to pore fill.

I used Zinsser shellac, and did multiple coats, level sanding in between. You're welcome. :)
