Found some nice Figured Honduran Mahogany at Goodwill

This....thing.... should make 3 or 4 nice uke necks. Not bad for 50% off the $3.99 marked price.

Great score. Congrats.

Hey, nice. Now that's thinking outside the box... Or outside the, ummm, whatever the "thing" started out as.

Could the pointing dog become a headstock?

Nice score. So what the heck was it before??

I think it was some weird 1970's cheese platter?- Ugly as sin. I picked it up laughing then saw what it was and thought, 3-4 necks for $1.50 is a good deal! My local Goodwill has a whole aisle of wooden stuff and im always keeping an eye out. I heard they had an original signed Salvador Dali drawing/lithiograph for $5. A mate of mine a few months ago bought a painting by a famous Hawaiian artist there for $15 and it is now in an auction house somewhere in Hawaii for $10,000 !!!!

I did think about keeping the dog in a build but it would be a tough sell- perhaps if i had a time machine and sent it back to 1975?
