Cleaning up the workspace..

As part of my birthday gift, I was very insistent on getting new tools boxes. I played the angle that I would finally be able to clean up the basement, since I would have space to put everything. When my birthday came, much to my delight, I received new tool boxes. I had to hold up my end of the bargain. I only took one before picture, but you get the idea of how messy it was. I wish I had taken more.


As you can see, much more space. Should help me be more productive working on the bikes.








I moved the bike I'm working on closer to the bench and the others into the corner. I spent three days cleaning up, around 14 hours in total. Yeah, that's what I do instead of studying. :)

Watches

I've been wearing watches for a few years now. More recently I've started a collection of sorts. I've got a few cheap ones and a few not so cheap ones. This is the majority of the collection and I'm pretty happy with it for now. My three favorite watches are below. A Lucien Piccard, Croton and Fossil.

Custom Guitar

It's almost done! It's actually strung up, just breaking in. Then final adjustments and a final buffing and it's off to Sudbury. I'm extremely excited about this, I can't wait to play it. I've never owned an expensive acoustic, let alone one that's hand made. I'm expecting a lot from this guitar and I really don't think I'll be disappointed. Hopefully when I get it I can get a video up so you'll be able to hear it. Here are a few of the most recent pictures. One of my favorite things is the pin-less bridge. To me it just makes a lot more sense than a pin style bridge, faster and easier string changes. Also note the black Gotoh tuning keys ;)
