Chris, those look awesome! I've got to build a two-pointer someday. I hope your shop foreman is giving you a break today

[Christopher Standridge]

Thanks Skip! I really like the two point shape, it allows you to be s traditional or as experimental as you want and it looks classy. Lily is taking it easy on me today. She wants me to put up sondclips, anyone else?

[Nolan]

[Gail Hester]

Chris - I dub thee the "Two-Point King"!

The mandolins look and sound awesome.

[Christopher Standridge]

Thanks everyone for the kind words. The design and arching of these two were directly inspired by my Randy Wood mandolin. He is the real king, or at least the Father of the Twin Point. These came out really close. I have a couple more with 1 piece Sitka tops coming out, I haven't decided on the back wood yet, quilted maple and birch perhaps.

how about a birch b/s oval hole?
