Hey, Folks:

Steve F's recent search for bar tape that matches the silver QB's blue
decals prompted me to post these pictures of my QB.

The tape is the dark blue, cotton stuff that RBW sells, coated with 5
or so coats of clear shellac. Also, I love the twine finish on
shellac'd bars, but brown doesn't aways work with the color scheme.
I'd never seen other colors of twine on bars, so I thought I'd post my
results in case anyone else is interested here.

I found black hemp twine at a local craft store when I was building my
Bombadil. That twine faded over time to a worn looking brown/black.
For the QB, I used a black, permanent marker to dye the twine before I
shellac'd it. Months later, the twine is still jet black. Note - I
colored the twine AFTER I had lashed it to the bars!

Happy New Year to all!

Dave
