Chris, I love the amp built into the case! Looks like it was a fun project! What will you come up with next?

Thanks!
Actually, I'm in the middle of constructing a recumbent, "tadpole"-design tricycle. Taking a bit of a hiatus from musical pursuits, in favor of cardiovascular fitness. "Age & Gravity".....generally sucks.
It's keeping with the spirit of BFLG, though. Cutting up old bicycles & reassembling the parts. Certainly challenges the right hemisphere.

Good job o'l bean!

At the NW Gathering we need to sit and plot out a way to put an exercise bike to a pump for watering the garden and playing the wind/water chimes...

I've decided to sell this creation. I added some straplocks on it. I'm open to offers, but I've got probably $65.00 into it, by now. Anybody interested?

I like that one! You should put it on Ebay with a BIN of $325 or Make Offer and see what happens.

Right you are, there Mike. Got nuttin'-to-lose.
Maybe (and probably) PT Barnum was right.
Stay tuned. We shall see what "the edge-of-the-envelope" looks like.

I'm getting some chuckles from this. Fat Boy, in the red suit, may be amused, too!

Mike, you may get a commission on this one.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all, a good night!

So, OK. 1st round was a flop. No nibbles, offers, or even castigations.
So, whack 1/2 off the BIN, and run it back up the flagpole.
We shall see.

I am intrigued by the Shredder, just hesitant to add another chest to the hoard.
I can quit anytime, really...

S'OK. It's more than a river in Egypt, though.

Gotta move some stuff. BIN $75.00. This is my "limbo"- low-as-I-go.
See what happens, in the next week.

Well, it's sold. Hope the new owner appreciates it. It IS 1-of-a-kind, and not likely to be replicated.

Apparently, it has arrived, and is welcomed. Very gratifying, and encouraging.
Pressing on........

I built one along those lines back in '95.

Very nice!
As to next fiasco, I am looking around for materials. The last Ovation parts package on FleaBay was $300.00! Probably, not gonna happen.
I have a tin box calling from the corner, though. A preamp I constructed, and plenty of the "small parts". Guess I need to find a neck. Maybe, a tenor guitar, or baritone uke.
We'll see....

Yep. Thanks for the extra effort. Nice slider there, Ol' Boy!
Here's one I did a few years ago.

Chris and others - If you find yourself on this side of the mountains you need to stop in and I'm sure I can send you off with some project materials.
