Due to the Ohio weather and unexpected dangers travelers tend to get into on Ohio roads, the Ivory Angel will be in her own home tomorrow. For today, we sit in anticipation. Timing is everything. This will be a special belated Christmas gift to herself.

I'll see you here tomorrow and we can share a picture then.

The beginning of the end of the Angel being on the McKnight work bench. This day will be a memory of the Ivory Angel for a long time.











is Tim giving a rule?



Thanks for enjoying this adventure with us. The videos didn't come out. Sorry. I am sure it was something I still need to learn.

Great job Tim and Mary!

Congrats Teri!!! What a beauty! Can't wait to see everyone at the McJam and see the Angel up close.

It looks like Tim is demanding Teri sign a pledge to always properly humidify the Angel.

Ha! Pretty funny. I've got humidity under control, but there was a small tug of war when Tim wanted to take the guitar away from me (for a legit reason). I wasn't ready to let go. Lol

I've got her at home now, to hang out with all of her stringed siblings. We had a little alone time this morning and will play again later this evening.

Thanks to all of you who followed along and provided your words of wisdom. Look forward to seeing you this summer!

Thanks to Teri all those who followed along on her build. Its now safely in her care and based on some private pictures and feedback she seems quite pleased with her new BFF. Wishing all of you a very Happy & Healthy 2023.

This has been a great story - reminiscent of a little happening almost ten years ago!

Tim gifted me the side sound port pattern of the angel guitar. Teri and Marcia got to have their own sister necklaces from the woods of their guitars.


This was taken on a Sunday morning before leaving the house.






This morning this was taken as Teri stopped by and was able to view the Artisan guitar show guitars in person. I had no idea she was wearing the same color I was. Perfect shot!

Hey, Sweet! Thanks!

Maybe my part of the job is too much fun. Don't tell Tim I said that!
