Winter 2017 Build Off - Challenge yourself

With a winter storm hitting where I live, I elected to work from home today. This is good as I will be able to get a couple extra coats of finish down today. I wasn't planning on having having these 2 coats down.
Things are looking good

We're getting hit tomorrow; planning on working from home which buys me back some commute time.

I got two days back out of this storm, I was supposed to head to NYC today for an early morning meeting tomorrow. Meeting got canceled tomorrow, so I didn't go today. I'm on coat #3 on my wing bass, A couple more and I'll be happy, I think. I need to get over my dad's tonight to make a nut and glue up some knobs (though I have metal knobs as a fall back).
 
I was in the camp of wanting more time at first... but having the hard deadline is getting me out of doing other things in life that I'd rather not do.
And like was said, you can always do the finer points afterwards, so that's doable for me.
 
Attention all Build off contestants

We are nearing the deadline, which is only days away.
I'd like to come to consensus on a couple things before we get to the weekend.

1) Will you make the deadline? (The people that have already dropped out need not reply) - I realize for some that is difficult to say at the moment. Please give me your best guess

2) How to set up the voting thread. I will set it up so we have 2 weeks for voting. I would like the voting thread have a single pic of your build. Underneath, or on top of each pic, I will put a link to your build thread. Does this sound doable? (Meaning you'll have to get me a link to your pic).

I know this will spur a number of questions, so let's open this for questions. If this gets too complicated, I'll keep all the prizes for myself:p
 
As if we didn't have enough fun already,

Here's what I have lined up for Prizes so far

Talk Bass - Mugs and Tshirts
Stew Mac - Set of Golden Age J pups, a StewMac Workshop Apron, and a wooden holder thingy
Best Bass Gear - Gift Certificate
Nordstrand - A set of pups
Lollar Pickups - A set of pups and a goody bag

I my get another contributor or 2

Stay tuned
