Hi Gerald,
also a heartly welome from this side of the pond! (from the eastern Paul).
Loading-up pictures is not so difficult! Just a trick that mainly gigures itself out!
As a builder yourself you can maybe design a baby-bass to hide in your car and play sneaky on patrols?;-)

Hey elzie!
 
I build all the parts myself in my garage turned shop. It is alot of work but it really doesn't seem like it. It's like my sanctuary, my little domain of peace. and it's big fun as well.
 
oh yeah... you guys can call me Gerry or Flash from now on if you want...dig it!!??
 
Play on...
 
see ya down range!!

Whats up Palembic:
I am making a small bass for my daughter. it's about a 16in scale. what I've done is take an old musicmaster bass' pick up and electronics and put them on a smaller version of the bodies I make. I'm not quite done with it but it's turning out pretty slick so far. My daughter is five and when I finish it I'll send a pic of her with it.  
 
On the other idea, I really don't think my chief would be so happy about that; cool idea though!
 
peace

Wew Flash!  
quite a hobby you have.  
Did you know that Alembic made baby-basses too? I know Edwin Van Huik (the EVH-thing in antother department) has one. He called it Tania's bass to his first-born daughter Tania. I have a post-card of  Tania and her baby-alembic. I'll show you  ...if I can find that ...d....f....picture somewhere ...

PS1: Please call me Paul, there are at least two Pauls running around here. You have that famous other Paul you already met: he's the official-welcomer. You have to know that the other Paul is always a great guy! Paul's are build that way! It's especially true if the other Paul says so about the other Paul  ...(I can keep this joke running for hours gang!!! LOL)
PS2: later in the afternoon EVH entered the site and posted a picture of Tania's bass. It seem it's a EVH signature piccolo-bass see http://alembic.com/cgi-bin/alembic-club/show.cgi?411/3287

You are too funny Paul!
 
It would be great to see some pics of the basses you have made Flash. Even some pics of your shop! I can make anything in metal, but when it comes to wood I am all thumbs......
