    Well, due to an unwise agreement I made with my wife, I can't get a new kit unless I sell/give away/dispose of another guitar. I'm currently building some guitar racks so my guitars can move into the house and get used more. Then I might try a rebuild my scratch lappy some time this year, as I know I could build better now.

    I've been doing bits and pieces on lots of little projects in the wee small hours when sleep won't come calling.

    I'm also easily distracted .....SQUIRREL! So I tend to pick pup something do something with it then pick up something else and do a different thing to that. Sometime the things I do are even the things I meant to do but not often.

    I half think this is why my daughter's doll house has a stairway that looks suspiciously like a fretboard, the cat's tower is 34" scale, one of my scratchbuild experiments has little draws for needles and thread and the bookshelf for the FrankenLab is morphing into a folding card table or possibly a 2x12 Cab.

    But it keeps me off the streets I suppose!
