fabulous concert

I went to a fabulous concert that had been postponed from the snow week.  Music from the court of Louis XIV, played on baroque flute, viola da gamba, pardessus de viole, and baroque guitar, by first-rate musicians.  I can't convey the beauty of the music but I will say, for those in the area, that it was only the first in a series.  The lineup follows the program and my crude renderings of the strings.  The guitarist will be playing lute and theorbo next week.  I'm looking at you, Little Flower Petals - you might be interested in seeing that.

Hermes knob cheap solution

They come from bottles of balsamic vinegar, olive oil, or other artisanal cooking products.














epoxy was a mess, and stinky!


gouge and trim

voila! the fit is nice and tight - works great.
next one if needed


p.s. another reason I wish I could be in Geneva right now (besides meeting Adwoa) can be found at this link.

Torpedo!

TW-DB has several models listed.  How do I tell which one I have?
It looks like the 18 on MOLG.

rough year so far


rather than make you guess, I'll tell you left to right is a fan I didn't detail, the Lettera 32, the Adler under its cover, a plastic case and a lap desk.  In the foreground, also not detailed, is a tray.
