G'day Matey, I'm checking forums ever hour or three, but busy working da wood.
As for 'everyone', I don't think there is much o' anyone checking this forum overmuch, but give it time I guess.
Making one a combination of Bubinga box and rosewood end caps/inlay, wow is that gonna be purty. (Already spoken for though, Arrrr!)

Don't get discouraged...it takes some time...
Once you have some "out there"....things get better.
I've added you to list of Bottom Feed Box Mods Thread, so you will get some fair play.
The craftsmanship will bring them in...
ECF is a little crazy over a couple of other models...your time is coming!
I've owned them all...your work is right up there with the best of them!
I'm on the pirates list now. hmmmmm, is that a good thing?......I think so.
Oh, and props to AG for adding Brians mod to the Bottom feed box mod thread. That's what brought me here.

I second that, thanks a bunch AG
Ahoy! Still available are;
Mark-I 'Bandit' / 3.7v, 510 atty, 14500 battery x1 $85
#102 Red Oak / Olive end caps
Mark-II 'Miss Misty' aka 'Wench' / 5v, 510 atty, 14500 battery x2 $110
#201 Cherry / Mahogany end caps
#206 Black Walnut / Maple end caps
I'm surprised someone didn't grab #206 fast, I think it's a really a pretty one, but just my taste.
Finishing up inlays on test run o' eight 'Scallywags'. Will start coarse sanding them tomorrow.
AG, the ebony is'nt here yet, I put yours aside so I can pick up working on it when it arrives.
Will post a few pics tomorrow of current run, I tried some more interesting patterns with inlays. Got a bit carried away with one, cut the outline and spent two hours with a wood chisel. Arrrr, I will never populate the world with these at this rate, but it's kinda fun.
Sorry I haven't been chatty, but been down in the hold, workin wood all day.
Later!
The most feared pirate sailin the seven seas! Don't believe me? Well, you can ask me mum!

Ahoy mates. Good mornin to ye!
I'm making a test production run of Bottom feeders to work the kinks out of the system, discover what processes need to be 'tweaked' and whatnot, but at the same time I also have four specific mods that are making they're way thru the system.
1. Aziffel - All Bolivian Rose wood, (very Hard hardwood, difficult to work)
2. Drottwiler - All Black Walnut (Lovely wood, a pleasure to work it)
3. AG - Black Cherry box, Ebony end caps, Ebony Inlay of some type (on hold, waiting on wood shipment for ebony)
4. Lazarrred - My choice
I'm pretty sure those are the requests I've had so far.
Also making 4 others, my choice of wood. I'll post some pics tonight or tomorrow after the initial sanding phase.

AG, you're ebony came in so still on schedule for weekend or early next week. I'm 1 or 2 days from finishing, and finishing takes 3-4 days.
Hmm, I need to take time and post the rest of my end cap and inlay woods I have... not enough hours in the day, arrrrr.
