I got a nice old Esterbrook last week. I wanted a couple of pens with the old, side lever for filling. I got a similar old Shaeffer at the same time from The Pen Market. On eBay, I found a...

After watching fountain pen reviews on YouTube, I now have about fifty of them. You will find many channels reviewing pens ranging in price from under $5.00 to $1,000 and more. There are lots of...
I think I'm going to get a couple of those canvas, zipper cases. I don't like them, but they haver hard sides, so they offer protection. The alternative is to make a couple of rectangular cases,...
Yes, I remember your earlier post about the bad smell of Glarry cases, but I have two of them - no smell.
Excellent! I'm surprised it's so loud. Maybe I'll make a double-bladed one for my kayak. ;)
I don't think I posted this before, but if I did - sorry.
A few days ago, I was going to order two concert cases from Glarry. When I got to the check-out point, it said, "Out of Distribution...
With all the talk of the Youthalele, I felt compelled to buy plywood. I got half a dozen sheets of 1/8" X 12" X 24" birch from Amazon. Now what do I do with it? ;)
I guess it's better to have...
My group meets three times a week using Zoom. Naturally, everyone but the leader is muted, but that's okay. I get to play for ninety minutes with my group. I hear the leader's singing and playing,...
That's a beauty! Enjoy it.
I came across this last night - seemed appropriate.

Nicely done!
It seems that some people are concerned with not having an ugly butt. ;) If I'm using a strap, I have a button on each end. If people care what my butt looks like, too bad! ;)
Thanks. So far, so good.

That's a beauty! Are you going to play it at the jam today?
Yeah, that's what I need. Expensive frustration! ;)
I have the black and white version, $110 delivered. It's a nice alternative to traditional ukes. I played it quite a bit a couple of weeks ago, and I think the steel strings wore down my strumming...
I didn't start drinking coffee till I was in my 40s. I could never get the milk/sugar combination right, so I drink it black. I've been drinking tea all my life, both black and herb, no milk or...
I'm accumulating all the online information about the Youthalele. I see some places selling the 1/4 x 12 x 24" plywood, but they're not clear on how many sheets you get. Blick Art shows six for $24...
Very nice. That must make it so much easier cutting out the actual wood. I've never used a template because I don't make the same kind more than once.
I used vinegar to clean my Keurig yesterday, but I wouldn't use it on a uke.
I have a thin strip of wood under the bridge. I knew that no kind of glue would hold the bridge to the plate, so I used four tiny bolts. I used super glue and those four bolts. The plate is...

That's beautiful! With that pointy thing on the bottom, you can stick it in the sand when you go to the beach. ;)
