Builds mandolins and the occasional tenor guitar in a shed in the hills. Ask about hide glue, do not ask about deadlines.

It is. I have six left from the same log, all split and not sawn, so there is no run-out to speak of. Twenty rings to the inch at the centre join, a little wider at the edge.

Four billets fit in one parcel. I would rather trade than sell: you mentioned a spare set of tuners for a tenor. If that still stands, send them along and we are square.

Sharp tools, slow hands.

Your profile and the messenger

Every member has a profile page. It shows what you chose to tell the board when you registered and nothing else: your e-mail address stays hidden unless you tick the box that shows it.

What appears on a profile

The head of the page carries your name, rank and avatar. Below it are your post counts, the details you entered and your latest posts.

  • Avatars are 84 by 84 pixels at most and are resized on upload.
  • Signatures may run to three lines; use [url] tags for links.
  • Birthdays show the day and month, never the year.

Private messages

A private message goes to up to five members at once. New messages are marked in your inbox and counted in the box at the top of every page.

Folders and storage

Your member group sets how many messages you may keep. When the meter is full, new messages are held back until you clear some space.
