    The wood tones were amazing, even in their raw stage. I did not realize there would be that much difference in sound.

    that was great, thanks for posting here!

    it was very interesting to see how he bent the wood, cut the binding line and scroll area out.

    his shop looked extremely clean and well kept, as did his work.

    I didn't know this when I posted this but, Mr. Sullivan passed on some years ago. He clearly had some friends here. I'm sorry for your loss. http://www.luth.org/memoriams/mem_john-sullivan.html
