Making lemonade out of lemons
 

I bought most of a set of wood for my 41 woodie from a disreputable garage in Southern California. Turns out the wood was for a 46 and wouldn't fit a 41. The mistake was I didn't check out references. I was expecting a finished set of wood but what I got was far from finished. Here is an example of what I got: http://mrtexascitrus.weebly.com/woodieparts.html I keep relisting this on ebay as a way to expose the crooks.

Here is the lemonade part. I sold the wood to a guy in New Zealand named Willis who I'm sure will be reading this. He follows the forum but I haven't seen him post anything. I sent him the two rear quarters and he was happy with what he got so I'm sending him the rest. Most joints need to be redone. I took a $$ loss after I decided I did not want to finish the work. I could have re-done the work as I'm quite an accomplished furniture maker. I've sent him a very detailed picture of the pieces so he knows what he is getting as it is costly to return ship anything from that far.

I've talked to him on skype several times so I know what he looks and sounds likes. He has also phoned me several times. The oddest thing is 7pm today is 12 noon in NZ tomorrow. Very confusing!

I shipped my woodie out to Ron Heiden for a new set of clothes.
