Here is a Wine Oak Fretboard Corkscrew just listed in my etsy store

This corkscrew is made with an oaking strip from a winery in Santa Cruz, CA It has a guitar fretboard made with real guitar frets as used in my Cigar Box Guitars, and white position markers. The oak has a nice reddish-brown coloring from the wine it was used to make. It is finished with lemon oil

I recently added a scroll saw to my shop. I see f-holes in my future. maybe a few a-holes as well.

I've made a few bottleneck slides now and I have determined that not all bottles want to be guitar slides.
