Gary Demos has completed his beautiful reproduction

Welcome! You may be wondering how a new forum could come to life so quickly. The answer is that a forum itself is empty, like a file cabinet or a vase, waiting to be filled. A forum evolves into something vibrant, lively, informative, fun, and personal when the members of the forum put their minds and hearts and souls into the forum. At the Luthier Community, that fact will never be forgotten. This forum really is your forum.
Help us Grow!
The page you are viewing is your portal to all of the features of the Luthier Community, not just the forum. This page will quickly evolve to provide exciting, informative, and dynamic content. We wanted to make the forum available very quickly, and so this main page is just in its infancy. But, that will change quickly! Help us grow by providing content (your words, photos, videos, and sound files) in the forum, as well as by making suggestions for what lutherie, wood, and tool information you would like to see. Bookmark this page, and then when you stop by to visit the forum you can watch the other site features come to life!
