Had an entire build thread deleted -- I think.

As above. Back when I did my first build, I started a thread on it. I can't find it now. It was done up in Tru Oil. An chance of helping me find it...weird.

Did you try the method I suggested?

What is the title of the thread?

this thread is about your using tru-oil on a build.

Found this started by you.

Is this (http://www.tdpri.com/forum/stratocaster-discussion-forum/190926-possible-finishes-new-ash-strat.html) it?

FB-You didn't join up here it seems until Nov 2009. At least that is the date of your first thread and is an introduction thread.

Yeah....I did a build on a swamp ash hardtail with a quartersawn neck. Body dyed and Tru Oiled and neck done in Tru Oil. There were at least a hundred posts...prob more. It was a long thread. Can't find it. I've been on since Nov 08.

It was quite the adventure. I'm saddened. I learned a lot with that thread.

Here are a couple of pics of the guitar. I hope someone can find the thread.

Just double checked, and it looks like a lot of threads are gone...not just mine. I can't find any threads past Dec 08 in Finely Finished.

Look here

The threads are filed according to the last activity,not when they commenced.

And by the way you may have joined TDPRI in Nov 2008 but you didn't start a thread until Nov 2009 as garytelecastor has already informed you. All this is information on your own profile.

Garytelecastor mentioned that I joined up in Nov 09, not started a thread then. In any case I could not find that doggone thread. Thanks for locating it. I honestly could not find it with the "threads started by me" tool.

But I'm curious why all the threads before then were deleted. Are they archived somewhere?

Ummm... wasn't that about when the finely finished sub forum was added?

That changes things a bit. Thanks for chiming in. I'm all better now. :oops:

One word -- sheesh!
