Mack you might take a look at the Posting Guidlines. (http://www.mandolincafe.net/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=23;t=13100)
They won't give you any instructions on deleting a thread but they might help you in future posts.

Thanks Cooper and Bill

If I could edit it I'd say I would give the book to the first person who showed any interest http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
But then since this will fade into obscurity I'll simply let it. Besides the book may become rare someday and I'll put it on Ebay...
But I will watch my steps and observe the rules religiously!

Not to my knowledge.
I did have that mandolin in The Great Divide in Aspen for a while in the 80's. Sandy nicknamed it the Comma kazi

My design was concocted at lunchtime on a workday. I sketched it on a scrap of paper and started construction that very day. I think I may even have purchased Siminoff's book from Sandy.

I guess there is some resemblance except for the color, the cut away, the tuning head, the radiused fingerboard, and...
