Mandy Blog #3:  Well, it looks like Spring is here to stay..  I am enjoying opening the windows and letting that Spring breeze in the workshop.  I continue to put the steer horn binding on the commissioned mandolin I am working on.  I have also moved on to working on the head stock as well.  The steer horn is very pliable after you soak it in boiling water.  The more I use it, the more I like it.  I enjoy working on the head stock and doing the inlay.  I use mother of pearl for the Macica inscription and Abalone for the tree.  I will send along some photos to show the process as I work!  Enjoy.  Marty
