Hi everyone. I think I said I was going to make a blue one some day? Well here it is. I barely had time to get 12 coats of varnish sprayed on outside last week when the temps were in the low 60's, and I started assembling the hardware on Thursday afternoon when I saw the first snowflake come down. Yesterday, after shoveling 6 inches of snow, I finally strung it up while Avi Avital was playing a nice classical Mandolin tune on Minnesota Public Radio.
Ladies and Gentlemen... I now present to you... Blue Octave (#86) 'The Ice Age'. This one (and a few of my other Mandolins) will be on display (and for sale) at the Winter Bluegrass Weekend on March 3-5 at the Crowne Plaza Minneapolis West.

No price tag yet (the case isn't finished) but I'll have all the details and more photos up on my web-site by the end of this week, and I'll also put everything up in the classifieds after the show next weekend.
