Hi, Grant,

That monkeypod looks nice. Will the neck use your adjustable joint? I'd like to see some closeups of that if possible..

Yes, it will. I will be sure to show the details of that.

Grant,

Very nice. Since I am new here I should do a little searching in case you have posted on this previously, but I am going to be lazy and ask anyway. That is an interesting bracing pattern. Is that your own design?

Yes, It is something I came up with about 6 or so years ago and tweaked for a few more years. I pretty much have it where I want it. Think I have something more posted here some place.

Yeah that monkeypod looks great! Grant,I like your back bracing a lot. And top bracing!
Have you been using this type of back bracing for long and does it have any distinct tone that
you can tell from cross braced backs?
