I've got a pile of NSW spotted gum that could well be coaxed into action, also plan a chambered Tele from it as well

More interested in getting 8 wickets to make an association total of 900 or 7 to be the most destructive for my club.
Sadly my team mates choose not to catch well when I have the ball so I think 892 is where it will end, the mind has finally come to grips with the fact I struggle to get over 120 now and nowhere near the 150+ of years gone by.
Just have to drive fast cars and guitars instead
This is looking REALLY nice

Hey Bruce I have to thank you mate, you have inspired me to build a similar lap steel but mine will be a baritone scale. I am hoping it will sound like a baritone guitar with heavier strings and a lower tune. Just want to try it out. I have glued the neck through piece together and after some sanding will glue the wings on and route the tuner post cavities. I'll post some pics soon !
