Hi Guys

I was so excited to get all the bits for my acoustic build that I made a little video...

I hope it's useful and/or a bit fun....

Cheers

Steve

Brilliant video @steveadams!!

Did you go through the *whole* shop, saying โ€œyup, Iโ€™ll have one of those tooโ€??

Can completely understand your excitement. ย Donโ€™t wait too long to show us the woods too though ... keen to see what youโ€™ve selected and what youโ€™re going to be building.

Wow, Bruce has bought the whole shop! 😆ย 

Well done @steveadams, Iโ€™m so pleased you are so excited about building your guitar, thatโ€™s what we like to see. So this is your new hobby, in between flying commercial airliners and fronting the greatest metal band ever, you will succeed sir. 🤘😁🤘🎸ย

Hey @tv101, @boo, @mattbeels, @russ

It's Bruce here!!!! ha ha...def dont mind being a duplicate for Mr Dickinson....

Part 2 is ready and will upload asap....I'll do my best to shoot some of the process and the mistakes, and I now there will be some...

Big question is whether it's safe to use the router with the long hair!!

@steveadams Just keep any long hair you have (wherever that may be on your body) away from the router. 🤣 No seriously 😐 Be careful with the other sharp tools as well, alway move the cutting edges away from you (you know all of this). 👍ย 

Mistakes are what we all make and we make a point of advertising them on here so we can all have a laugh, share ideas on how to fix them and it leaves a record of them for others to see in years to come. Itโ€™s a database of mistakes and fixes.ย

@steveadams

The Ibex bending iron is great Iโ€™ve been using one for years, it does all types of instruments.

p.s. thicker masking tape is for thicker people so you probably wonโ€™t need it.

Some people call me a tool, others are less complimentary. Tools being useful things.
