READIN started out as a place for me to keep track of what I am reading, and to learn (slowly, slowly) how to design a web site.

There has been some mission drift here and there, but in general that's still what it is. Some of the main things I write about here are reading books, listening to (and playing) music, and watching the movies. Also I write about the work I do with my hands and with my head; and of course about bringing up Sylvia.

The site is a bit of a work in progress. New features will come on-line now and then; and you will occasionally get error messages in place of the blog, for the forseeable future. Cut me some slack, I'm just doing it for fun! And if you see an error message you think I should know about, please drop me a line. READIN source code is PHP and CSS, and available on request, in case you want to see how it works.

See my reading list for what I'm interested in this year.

🦋 Tin-can Cello: skew pegs

Well... the pilot holes for the pegs were square, I'm sure of that... the skewness of the peg holes alarmed me at first but I'm growing to like it. Each peg is skewed slightly to the back and slightly up. This means the string is going to come off of the peg pulling it a little off square. I'm not sure what effect this will have and I think the tuners will still work... Taking for granted that they will function, I kind of like the effect visually. So I'm tentatively going to claim that I meant for it to look this way. It's a feature of the lateral pegbox!
