Friendly reminder
(especially for @rojo412 @mapleglo and @Jon Clegg and anyone else that might make it that I missed )

Buildoff submission cut off is in about 30 hours from now.

This is all

Well, I'm very sad to say that I have no choice but to bow out. Neither of my instruments will be completed in time for the deadline. They will both be built, but just not in time for the deadline. I do plan to update my threads to where they are at today however, and then ongoing as they are finished. Without going into a bunch of details, I can sum it up with: health. I'm fine, but I've had some unavoidable delays.

I will however, cheer everyone on and wield the power of my vote. Pandering to me for voting favour is encouraged... :D

Glad to hear that you're OK. Sad that you have to bow out.

Well,

I suppose it's safe to let you know where I'm at with the prize vault
Yeah, I know it's not about the prizes, but it sure feels good when they come your way

Here's what I got solid:
Nordstrand - Pups
Lace - Pups
Keven Connors Mill - Top - Where mapleglo got one of her tops
Hipshot - Kickass bridge - choice of color
Goby Walnut - Walnut Billet
Scoops - I'll contribute a walnut top or billett
TalkBass - TB Swag to all finishers

T Bone TL- TOW to ALL that entered

Working out details
Fralin
Lollar
Best Bass Gear

Not bad, everybody gets a prize this year

But some how I feel like an episode of the Simpson's where in the intro they are about doing their thing, they all arrive at home only to find the couch missing. They are all confused and don't know what to do

Don't even start.. I finished and the first thought was: what will I do with all that free time and no dust around??

Since I finished the bass, I finished this:

Then I built this for a guy that wanted a sub-six pound Tele, just a source and assembly job but he's super happy with it:

Been working on this thinline, would have had it done but the client is buying all the hardware himself and it took a while.

But other than that..
