Stocking the room...

Along with Christmas presents, my parents brought the wood my father has been storing in his dry room for the past 15 years. I have had the dry room maintained around 40% humidity for about 3 weeks. The stock includes 4 sets of spruce for soundboards, several blocks of mahogany for necks (at least 3 or 4), 4 or 5 slotted fingerboards, and lots of spruce blocks for brace material. There is also some binding and back strips. There are also two dreadnought molds with two sets of sides already bent and two sets of back plates already joined. I cut some 3/4in MDF for a template and for some flat boards to glue the plates for soundboards and backs in the future.
