After being laid out on my dining room table for the last two nights, I moved the wood today down to the shed. Typical that the drought breaks the week before my guitar arrives. I forgot that it is NOT typically sunny and somewhat warm during winter. My ongoing battle with the way I feel about humidity, is coming to an end. I think I will start and work only on fine days.

Ted - the biggest deal with humidity in my mind is that you build the guitar in a 'certain' humidity environment and that your supplies are acclimated to that environment, which you've done.
If you build in 70% relative humidity and then take the guitar quickly/hrs/days to a very dry (<35% humidity) you run the risk of cracking/twisting of parts/glues.
Vica-versa for building in 'dry' and taking to humid areas. Just like the body, getting acclimated to the humid evironment is important.
good luck -
JB
