Hi Guys-
After dad had a heart attack a few years ago, it was a bit too much of a walk to get out to the big boat shed - so we enclosed part of the porch off the kitchen for his personal workshop/luthier studio. - Now it is only about four steps to get into the kitchen , and another five or six to his chair in the living room. -
He is now on oxygen quite a bit of the time - too many years of smoking he says- so having 'his shed' now attached to the house - works for us all. - best of all - he is still building! He started a figure 8 style tenor for one of the grand kids. - and the living room wall is lined with ukes! Thanks guys, for all your support and ideas freely given here in the " luthier's lounge " .
Best Wishes to ALL of you from me and the crew here at the Lazy G Ranch for helping keep dad's interest in building - he just turned 84 and still enjoys and looks forward to making dust and shavings!
