Flax & Brad:
 
Once it's in your hands, the long build time doesn't seem to matter anymore.  It's as if when you can feel the weight, you forget about the wait.  Good luck to both of you.  
 
Bill, tgo
 
P.S. I'm still waiting on the Calton case I ordered for Woody last June!

deep breaths,,,,

It's got all the finish now, just waiting for the final curing:

With our cold snap, we will probably wait a week before attempting the rubout on this bass.

[flaxattack]

lol
great job on the drilling and layout for the controls.  
i decided to upgrade the knobs to led;s like my good friend brad's. working it out with roger.

I keep holding my laptop up in front of my face to look into the detail.  It's kinda like the pictures of the inside of an active volcano; intensely hot liquid fire.  Pretty amazing!

[jacko]

Shiney and swirly. Won't be long now.

Flax--
 
That's looking pretty sweet.
 
And it looks like we're both getting close to the finish line!

[Bradley Young]

...but I'm going to beat you.  

[flaxattack]

itsa gonna be set NECK and NECK thru to the finish line bradley.....haha
once again if youre heading to the mothership feel free to pluck away.  
knobs dont count btw...
the eight days of hanukah start tuesday night.
maybe hanukah harry will stop by alembic on his way over like he did last year. i sure hope the weather warms up out there.,

[Bradley Young]

I'm headed to San Jose on the 12th, Santa Rosa is on the schedule for Thurs or Friday.
 
As far as the finish line goes, I'm thinking that what really matters is possession.  9/10ths of the law and all that.
 
Can we get a legal ruling?  Is there a lawyer in the house?

[lbpesq]

Yea, there's a lawyer in the house, and I already beat you both!  
 
When an Alembic arrives is far less important than that it arrives.  Bradley, you gonna be headin' thru this way?
 
Bill, tgo

[cozmik_cowboy]

And a lawyer who's knowledgable about possession, at that (nyuk nyuk)
 
Peter

[flaxattack]

yes bill is definitely possessed.
what time are we measuring weenies behind the handball wall?
 
its gonna come down to this
brad has an extra string and putting that on will cost him.... lmao

[Bradley Young]

Hanukkah Harry got you a pair of socks.
 
And six strings = six speeds.  I will beat you.  
 
Bill, I'll be down the 13th - 15th.  Email me if you'd like to connect.
