RE: Accoustic kit ordered @powerful. Those sides look great. When doing the first one you really have no idea of how far you need to bend to get it close. Watching Mark do it on the course, and when he gets it so close the fir... |

RE: Accoustic kit ordered If those pics you posted were of the "near disastrous" first time that you've tried bending sides, and then the morning-after re-bend, then I think you put that down as a big success. OK, there's some... |
