I have no idea where this should post but as it is a part of my shop I dropped it here Like many of us wood workers music in the shop is as ubiquitous as the saw dust we create. I have a million favorites and am captured by the many lines and phrases penned by the writers and performers. Pretty near the top of my list is Hotel California. If I could hear this song one hundred times a day it still would not be enough. Some time ago I came across someone who presented their version of the real meaning behind the lyrics of Hotel California. Since then I have enjoyed many others who offer a completely different interpretation. I believe the Youtube video linked here is the best and most accurate unpacking of the hidden meanings and haunting lyrics. A word of caution it is a bit haunting and may take you to a place where you can check out any time you like but you can never leave. calabrese55

I have a question for you all. I am in the planning stages of building a music stand, I like the simplicity of this Maloof stand. One of the design areas I'd like to use is the arm and sheet/book music support part of the design. I can't see how the arm is staying in place, could it be as simple as gravity? The weight of the left side of the arm is heavier than the right side, so it's pinching on the vertical post as it rests? There isn't any obvious screw handle or clamping mechanism holding the horizontal assembly up and in place. I am assuming the height is adjustable? Thanks for any opinions on this.

Had a cut off live edge slab laying around looking for something to do. Might have overdid it since it's about 30" high even after trimming. Natural wood with 3 coats of poly.

For the last month or so as some of you know I have been building a box Dulcimer. It's close to done now. I have been posting a few Pic along the way. here are a few more pics. It's almost ready to play. I just need to do some math to find where to place the frets on the neck. you just can't slap them on anywhere you think you may need. Math and me don't always get a long. The easy part is I have a fret calculator, the the answers it gives me I need to turn into fractions.because I don't know where to find numbers like 2.292"on my ruler. But moving on I was busy this week I had to make an end piece so I would have a place to anchor the strings to bring them up over the bridge then up to the nut. I made it out of some scraps of mahogany and maple Here it is mounted on the box. Also a small scrap piece of wood to show how the neck would look on it.

I had live music in my shop this past Saturday! Our youngest daughter was studying on the dining room table for her AP History exam, our oldest daughter wanted to practice at the same time, scholastic's take priority over all in our home, even over good music, so our oldest girl needed a place with her friend to practice for an open mic event that same night at a local music store that holds open sessions on Saturdays. They asked if they could come out and practice while I work. I turned off my radio and opted for live. Hey, free live music while I work! What more can ya ask for! Typically I don't like things on my table saw, I'll make an exception, this time. This a just a warm up they were doing to have fun. Cynthia is our oldest daughter, on violin, and her "boyfriend" is on geeetar. He's an ok kid, took me a loooong time to accept it, but he's alright. Her first, they been seeing each other since their Jr. year in high-school and they are equally yoked. They are both wrapping up their freshman year in college. Good kids. She plays in her college symphony, quartet, and symphony choir, she is well studied in classical, but her favorite to play all day long, is Appalachia.

I am curious, do we have any instrument makers here? We are trying to see if there may be a need for an image gallery for musical instruments. Thanks for any feedback! -
