    ...and the ideas keep popping in to your head and resonating....building in intensity...seeing someone else’s work on a guitar style you’d never considered before tip you over the edge and.........Adam has some more of your money and you are checking the Auspost app on the hour.
    Definitely accurate. I had set myself a bit of a New Years resolution to finish the two I've got on the go, and the two I've ordered and then maybe one more after that. Instead it's mid Jan and I'm making bloody templates for two more semi- scratch builds, have decided to buy two more kits, and am drawing up plans for two more scratch builds after that (with about a dozen other ideas kicking around). I have no idea what I'll do with them all; I don't even really play that much!

    Sounds like you have your own Igor giving you bad (good) ideas.....
