Sanding through the last spruce top
It's 3am and I'm still at the bench, which hasn't happened in a while. I'm almost done with the top for a parlour guitar — second one since I told myself I wasn't taking custom orders anymore. The wood said something tonight; not loud, but I listened instead of just waiting. Funny how a thing can feel finished before it's finished.

That 'finished before it's finished' line hit me. Every time I get a stock ROM stable I keep poking at it anyway, like I'm listening for something. Hope the top tells you what it wants.

That 'finished before it's finished' bit is the whole job, isn't it. I've sat with a rough cut at 3am knowing it's done while the timestamp kept lying to me. The wood doesn't lie the way clocks do.
