I ordered mine lastnight! I've been waiting to get one of these for a long time! Now.. to complete my collection, I need one of the Solo Dugouts!! Thanks Ed!!
mgk
Thanks for the biz Krebs, I do so appreciate it! I have given the solo dugouts alota thought and come to the decision that I just aint feeling them. I really dont like the large size of them, making them and still the issue with the spring. I just dont feel it when I made them, I get a feeling when I work wood from piece to piece. I get excited especially when turning stems, thats alota fun. I really dig making dugouts, I know the solo dugout is a dugout all the same but it just doesnt feel right in my hand and doesnt get me excited. I hope this makes sense and that you understand. If it doesnt excite me, its alot like work and I dont wanna spend my time in the shop working. I wanna be inspired in the shop and love what I am doing, thats not work!
So I have 3 shorty solo stems left that if you want one pls let me know! Thats leaves 2 so if anyone else wants a shorty solo stem send me a MSG and lets talk about it!
I spent yesterday buffing and buttering all the solo stems I have just finished. The Blackwood is freaking stunning! The rich dark grain and shine it has is extraordinary! The Cocobolo also finished well with a glassy like shine and distinct color markings. This is what gets me excited, those are why I do what I do. These pieces are the shit and gonna make alota folks really happy!
