I have padded the estimate a bit but will likely do so a bit more
for the actual proposal and subsequent contract. <br>
I found that even in it's dilapidated condition it has more than a
"twinklky tone suited to granny's tea room". What I'm most concerned
about is the parts situation. It sounds as though I'll be rebuilding
wippens and the like. What fun! ;-\ The pin block doesn't worry me too
much but other things that I can't easily duplicate could become quite
the P.I.T.A.<br>
<br>
all the best,<br>

<div>You made the right decision, contract work on these beats spec
work.</div>
<div>I hope you made your estimate at least 50% over a 'normal'

<div>They have a nice, little, twinkly tone suited to granny's tea
room which is</div>
<div>why you'd be hard pressed to sell it for what you put into it.
It

little</div>
<div>more cahones.</div>
