My best eBay buy EVER!

[@volkerfriedritz8149]

Hi John, I think you bought a treasure on eBay... and it's good that you're in contact with the luthier who owned or even built all these items. Lots of the items' purposes (and their usefullness) are easy to understand, if you're watching guitar build videos on KZbin regularly. Congrats!

Hi, thank you I did find a treasure. I have seen him a few times since and have been given even more, from specialist items, such as a baritone ukulele mould through to plywood for making jigs.

@@engine-room That's nice to hear! I guess he must be happy, too. Knowing that his tools, jigs and parts don't get "down the trash bin". It's a legacy, and he must be happy to know everything in good hands. I think, I'm going to subscribe to your channel, so I can watch what finally evolves from both "the treasure" and your new contact (friend?). Happy building and Greetings from Germany!

@volkerfriedritz8149 Thank you and welcome to my channel. He seems very keen to pass his skills on. I will be starting my building journey in the autumn once I have finished my current stock of repairs, and have bought the materials.
