  9. Day 58.

    I refreshed the edge on the Ralf Aust this morning, and it did indeed make all the difference. Three passes, and one with the Piccolo. No blood, no hotspots.

    And the La Toja stick is finished!

  15. Matthew, welcome to the 30 Day Crew! You're off to a great start. I'm glad you're here with us.
  16. I was out and got the felt at Michael's, but they didn't have what I had in mind for balsa. But then I was in Dollar Tree, and I had an epiphany:

    Just a minimal amount of trimming for shape and fit...

    And perfect! Now I just need to figure out where I left the glue.

  18. While not exactly the same set up, I have compressed springs with contraptions not too far from that. I don't think I would do it anymore, but in my younger days...
