The surprise being that it's Sunday. Without a Monday to Friday job, the relevancy of days has sharply receded.

Now wake up roomies, I gotta run saw!

I would run the saw anyway, shame on anyone trying to slow the production of a guitar.... :D

My favorite is using a ROS on a body and not putting a towel in the sound hole - about the loudest thing that I do in my shop....

Yeah, that's a good one. Never thought of stuffing the soundhole though. Mayhaps I'll try that...

Man, I know that feeling, been retired for a while and there have been times when the month has some how changed and I missed it. I love it, I'm just thankful to be able to get my two feet on the floor and hope I get to learn and/or do something worth while during the day. PRESS ON....!!

. . . just tired. Ed, that's what I was thinking as I read your first post. I can see where you could be lulled into relentless 7 day weeks. But you and the other full time pros need to find a way to take a breather.
Enjoy the building. But remember to give something back.

Well, I got to go steelhead fishing last weekend and fall into rivers, tangle the rod in the underbrush, that sort of thing, so I do get out once in a while...
