As soon as I will start with my Sloop Fly, I will use your log as further guide for my model. It is a really useful add on to the wonderful books from David and Greg.

" , . . . if I can" says the man who has proved that he can do anything with such great skill and artistry to humble one and all.  I really enjoy your work, it is a wonder to behold.

Take care and be safe.

you are too good to me!
As Socrates used to say, I know I don't know, and for every job I approach I never know if it will be acceptable or if I will have to start over again.

I see so many works on this forum that are truly unparalleled works of art and I am enraptured by the skills of so many of you, and I wonder: how do you do it?
it is true, sometimes I am amazed by what comes out of my hands, but rarely!
