I have several tablet or mobile phone stands for sale. These have a 5/8" slot, which will allow for a device as wide as an iPhone in an Otter Box to fit in it. They have soft felt feet so they will be easy on your table or desk. Also, I have six (6) memory boxes or little jewelry boxes. They are roughly 5-5.5" by 7-7.5" depending on the box and they are 3.5-4.5" tall outside dimensions. They have brass hinges and vintage brass clasps. Also, I have six (6) handmade wooden airplanes. They have a propeller that spins and a tailpiece that moves and wheels that roll. All pieces are all wood (except for the hinges and clasps on the boxes) and are handcrafted for my shop Edwards Toys and Gifts.

The items listed above are all at a special price of $18 each for the Christmas season.

I also have acoustic guitars, harps, mandolins , and dulcimers including the one pictured in this ad, also at reduced prices.

Finally finished these phone rests that have been on my desk in the shop for weeks. I finished them, then discovered that the tool I use to take the photos needs to be in the photos. These are not the best photos, but I wanted to see how they would look once they were uploaded. I will take some more later. I have poplar, osage orange, white oak, and persimmon bases and four different poses for the little guy doing all the work.

Would you use this item, if you had one? Comment below if you would.

Finished June of 2016, this parlor guitar sports a persimmon back and sides, mahogany neck, a spruce top with claw marks, and an oiled wenge fret board and hand honed bridge. The saddle, pins, and nut are all genuine TusQ and the tuners are Grover Vintage bronze 18:1 machine heads. The head stock itself is laminated with persimmon to match the back and sides. This is a truly vintage looking guitar. Made from solid wood (persimmon is heavy) it is a little heavier than what you normally pick up. It has a ET&G emblem cut from cocobolo wood that slips behind the strings on the head to hide the hole for adjusting the truss rod. The strings are light gauge, giving it a relatively lighter and brighter tone and sound. Heavier acoustic strings would give it a deeper and lower tone.

Special thanks to Trey England for his help in demonstrating this guitar. I appreciate his help with this short video.

This is a custom built persimmon guitar. Persimmon is known as domestic ebony wood. The density is similar and the true center or heart of the tree is black ...
