So I am finished ....at least as far as I'm going to take the project. I kept the original bellows, the finish is not exactly as I planned (yes it's red, Mahogany) I'm no perfectionist and you can see that in the results of the finish. Although I have to say that I'm not ashamed of my efforts. The reed work though was done by Theo, I had him tune it dry, He did a magnificent job! The box may look a bit odd to some, it does to me but as I said it's my first go. Now I have put it up on ebay but now that someone has told me that the C/F box is a dime a dozen I realize I'll never get what I put into it as I knew was the case before I started. So here are some pix...be kind! The box does sound smashing if your an enthusiast of the dry sound. If there is a soul out there interested in taking this project off my hands at a reasonable price I will entertain offers. I figure I will never play this configuration, I'm just too busy learning B/C box.
