Sorry I have been away for so long. I have made some new progress though. Here are a few pictures. (you will have to be logged in to see them though I believe)

It has been dubbed "Stumptown" after the historical name of the town I live in here in Montana.

Fenders are backorderd and windows are about 2 weeks out. I figure I should be complete in 4 to 6 weeks!!!!!! Then it's fishin time!!!!

Looking good. What kind of trim are you using on the hinges?

Keep up the good work.

Ezbie,
Where did you order your fenders from? I am thinking about a pair from R.W. Johnson. Anyone have any comments on their service or fenders?

The hinge is a Monroe Living Hinge (Plastic Piano Hinge) http://www.monroeengineering.com/hinges/living-hinge-plastic-piano-hinge.htmo ordered from http://www.mcmaster.com

It has been trimed with oak counter top trim with a 3/8 inch x 1/8 groove routered on the bottom an a 1/8 round-over on the top. I did the same thing for the toung box but did make a little mistake here. I cut the hinge 1/2 to short because I forgot to account for the 1/4 trim on the box but should be ok though. I will know better next time!!!!

Any more questions ask away... Love answering them!!!
