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
