What's been up

Hi everyone
For everyone who doesn't know, I've been working on a Saga guitar kit I received from my parents. Because today I just laid on the first coats of paint I decided it was time to write something and post some pictures.
This is the plain headstock. I found a design I liked from a yamaha sg electric.

I cut the design with a coping saw and rasp (curved file)

Now the paint. As I said before natural with a stripe design
I cut out the design with a razor blade.


I did three coats. Now to take off the tape.. tomorrow

A Poem

Hi everyone. This is a poem I wrote for school, but I thought it would be fun to post it here.

"The Race"
I'm in a race that's set by God
and at the start He gave a nod
"I will be there at every leap
"My faithfullness is what will keep
"you sure and safe from all the fears
"that try to haunt you far and near"
The race seems long the heat to hard
But I must always keep my guard
and flower fragrance call out to me
to take a rest beneath a tree
my step will quicken with His strength
To fight the good fight till the end
Thanks for reading it!

MAY time

Hi everyone!

May is my favorite month. Not only am I finishing school in a week, but my birthday's in May!On Friday i completed lesson 163. Only seven lessons to go!! I'm really excited to be out. I'm not done with my recording yet, but I have laid down a noisey tamborine. Last will be my voice> <

Kimberly has been sick for the past week, but she almost fully recovered. I'm really glad she's better. It's so hard seeing her so tired, always half asleep, coughing, and weak:(
But she better now so we're all thankful to God.

Mike and I will be practicing Christmas song together over the summer- if Michael cooperates.
-I mean wants to-

Did I mention only one week of school left?

Because of the great cost of making a guitar I want to wait longer(not too long). There are few other projects that might need more attention.
Signing out, Nathan
