The morning began with a trip to the dentist! A filling dropped out. But then things got better.
Back at the workshop, a visit from Nicole Hurtubise who had some minor problems with a pickup in her tenor.

We wanted to check out the pickup on my amplifier and so Nicole sang a little song.
Lovely voice. I convinced her to install a low G string to augment her deep voice.
My friend George Thomas is building a resonator guitar and needed one inch cedar posts. George has every other conceivable tool in his shop but he does not have a lathe, so I turned his posts for him this afternoon
this handy tool allows you to set it at exactly the diameter you wish and cut reference cuts- then it is easy to level to that point. I set this at a hair over one inch knowing sanding would reduce the diameter
And here it is, ready to deliver to George tomorrow and just about exactly 1 inch in diameter over its entire length.
