ha ha , took a break, i actually sang in bars for many years as a good living, took a break from construction, this was when i was living in japan with my japanese girlfriend, i went busking one day, made nothing.....
it could have been the fiji shirt, which i threw away after seeing this photo

i play left handed, i own a martin d41 and a taylor 615, both are mint and 10 years old, they have been under my bed for that long, since i have been too busy surveying, oh well
i am off to bed
cheers all

How do you deal with the foreign languages and working with the construction plans, or is English and metric the base used ?

the plans are in english and chinese, i usually get an assistant who speaks a little english, although one job i had a husband and wife team who spoke no english and i did 10 months of sign language, very frustrating, the amount of times i had to walk 100 metres to show him something.the wife would sweep the floor and the husband would hold the prism or chalkbox

robotics dont work for the tolerances i had to deal with, in the office we have pretty size 6 female translators who would come out on site, you get used to it

That is one of the very few left handed guitars I have ever seen.
