It's getting real. 

The question is, has this got any realer yet? Is realer a word?

[Owen]

Realer is more of a word than my progress

[Christine]

The warm weather is coming, you'll get more done then

Don't rush the man. Trees grow slowly in North Wales.

I think @owen needs to actually plant one first

I honestly think when this does get underway it's going to be a classy build

It is easy: Everybody needs bread(bin) and Christine.

I have no idea how any of the "reward" features of this site work. What determines somebody's Watts? Why have some people got a rank and others don't? Where does one post a status update?

I don't actually care, everyone here is awesome anyway 🙂

[Si600]

Watts come from people liking your post. It's the TLRT option in the bottom right hand corner of a post. Choose a reaction and the poster's Watts go up by one.

Rank and status? No idea.

[Owen]

I was just thinking that I might have time to start messing with this. Then I realised that I left my spokeshaves at work and that is now locked. Ho hum.

You are not wrong. 

[Owen]

I made some wood shavings with my spokeshave to get our new firepit lit. I suspect I have reached the zenith of my woodworking career. 

[Richard R]

I saw the notification and was all excited to see progress on the bass. 🤗

Now it seems you have skipped the build entirely and gone straight to the Hendrix setting fire to it stage.

My Stingray build is, so far, 6 months slower than yours – I hereby request the mods take this build thread title and give it to me 😁

Seriously though, any progress?

[Owen]

Progress = I have realised that it is beyond me. I am at peace.

And title is mine and always shall be It is the only way I can contribute to this forum, but I love this forum.

But you've got a nice fire pit!

[Owen]

It is a very fine firepit - however, I have seen a better one.........you know how it is...............

Firepit GAS, or should that be a gas firepit? 

🤔 😄

I started building my neck-thru in May '18 so I think I should have this build title!! 😁

Yeah a little bit I'm gonna finish my 5 string $$ build, I'm just trying to build up the courage to fit the truss rod and then do the fretting (never done it before!!) 😳

[Fishman]

I feel your apprehension! My Stingray build came to a halt due to not wanting to feck things up – now I am confident enough to plug the router in 😓
