Hey Tim, Have you noticed a difference in the Uni bond recently? They reformulated it a little while ago and I don't care for it anymore. Just curious what your thoughts have been. BTW great work!

If you think he's focused and intense when working on a guitar, you ought to see him standing over a three-foot putt!
