THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS

5/25/2014

 The Concerts are gone already.  #48 is boxed up in the shop ready to be shipped to Maine when the post office opens on Tuesday,  Joan bought #46 and took it home this afternoon and here I sit with  #47 waiting to be picked up in the morning by Megan from Skagit County.  It kind of sad to see your children leave home so early,  On the other hand I am delighted that they are all going to loving homes.

I have been playing #48 this evening, warming it up for Megan in the morning and reflecting on what great little ukes these are.  I wandered down to the workshop and checked out my supplies.  What do you know,  I found three walnut concert pinecone necks, three pre cut back blanks, exactly three sides already thinned and cut to shape and I have lots of Englemann Spruce for tops--- so I decided that I will start three more Concert Pinecones in the morning.  I am in the finishing stage with the 6 Soprano Pinecones so it is time to get another build cycle started.   It is strange how I get the itch to start new ukes  just as I begin finishing the previous batch.  One of these days I will have some concerts to advertise on the web site,  Pre orders for the next three will be accepted.  They should be ready by August.
