Thanks Richard,

Sounds like you're a tinker of sorts too. Yeah, the more time you
spend working on your gear, the less time you have for playing it.

I've got this mock "C" style stand complete with lower manual about
75% completed for about the last year. Since I got my real CV, the
whole project seems somewhat moot but I do need to finish it. And the
list goes on...

BTW: Does anyone know where to get quarterfoil moulding like on the C
cabinets??? If I have to make it from scratch...there's another
project:) :(

Cheers,
Rock
