Just a bump since it's been a 1 1/2 years.
Yeah, we needed a bump, huh!
Not sure if I posted this already, but since my scanner came back to life here's one of my favorite old pictures of my first "good" mandolin - a Flatiron F5-SB that I got in '96. I still have this one...
2015 Chevy Silverado
2 bottles of Knob Creek bourbon
1953 modified Kay string bass named "Bambi"
What is that at top of scroll?
Which bit?
cooper4205: Too funny. If this becomes a contest, I'll have to bail out on highbrow and vote for you. Thanks.

Ah that's a 'fancy' bit of bluegum. I put it there to hide a hole I made in the side when removing the old soundboard.

My latest CD cover is artsy. In fact, I hired a couple students from the local University Art department to handle the design.

The last of some Aberlour 16 I got for my birthday last year, it didn't quite make it a whole year. At least the mandolin will be around for many years to come! Well lets hope...

Been a while and someone asked if I had any mandolin related photos from my Photo A Day Project. I get my themes from an Australian Blogger. While not all are mandolins, here are some instrument(ish) ones. I can't recall the themes they went with.
My TC Octave, My Kamaka Uke, a Martin Guitar Soundhole from the 50th Philadelphia Folk Festival I decorated, my pink wristlet from last years Fest as I drove to the grounds one morning and, my beloved Spira mandolin.
Maybe with instagram/phone photos looking better (all these were done with my iPhone 4S and either Instagram, Snapseed or Camera Plus apps (all are free)) this thread can get some new life.

There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want; and, after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second. Logan Pearsall Smith, 1865 - 1946
