I hope it goes well!

You're welcome! I'm glad this was helpful.

Thank you for this! I have an old xylophone with excellent keys, but the way they rest on the xylophone needs some TLC. This gives me a great direction to go with repairs and making the whole thing beautiful again.

Thanks!

Thanks!

This turned out great -- very happy with it.

Thank you for commenting!

Thanks for catching my spelling -- my resident Portuguese proofreader missed it.

I've had lots of people ask me over the past decade "how'd you make this!" and thought I ought to lay out the simple beef + salt + fire recipe for success. Googling "churrasco" -- at least in English -- always seems to bring up fancier, less traditional approaches.
